Volunteers Needed for Gator Olympics
Sign up now!! We NEED you!!
This year's Gator Olympics will be held on Monday, June 10th.
Parents are encouraged to sign up and volunteer for Silver Gate's best day of the year! The Gator Olympics is a day of rewarding play for our children. They have worked hard all year and now it is time to have some fun! Please click here to sign up.
Please note: The games are still subject to change or revision (games are not finalized for sure yet) and if needed, game helpers will be moved as needed.
The Escort position is for someone who not only escorts the kids from game to game, but also can help the Games Volunteers run the games at each station. They will need to keep the children in check and help every child get a turn in 9 minutes (versus standing around and talking). This will keep the games running smoothly. Thank you!
