MY ROOTS is an adventure-based volunteer experience designed for teens ages 13–18 (students who have completed 8th grade and not yet graduated high school). Participants will earn volunteer service hours while exploring Manatee County’s unique habitats and natural resources. The group will meet on the 3rd or 4th Sunday of each month from February through April to complete a service project at different locations throughout the county. Each project day lasts approximately 6 hours (including traveling) and may include visits to multiple preserves and participation in a variety of environmental service projects. Programs typically begin in the morning, with start times subject to change based on weather conditions. Participants should be prepared for the physical demands of outdoor activities in Florida’s environment. Transportation between project sites will be provided. PARENTS: This is a drop-off program, and all volunteers will be supervised by two trained staff members certified in Wilderness Survival, First Aid, CPR, and AED. Participation is free, but an application is required to join the service program. At the end of the program, participants will have earned 20 volunteer hours and will receive a signed certificate of completion, which may be used for scholarship or college applications. Program suitable for student volunteers ages 13-18. deletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedeletedelete For more information contact [email protected].
