EVENT SUPPORT

Our events are a super fun experience to volunteer for, including free entry and a meal to the event! It’s also a great way to enjoy the event while furthering the mission of the Clubs. Many of our volunteers return every year. Each event has its own set of needs, so we encourage you to contact us. Here’s a list of usual volunteer positions at events:

  • Helping guests at registration
  • Running games during social hour
  • Bartending: Must have a Class 12 serving permit
  • Pre-event set-up
  • Post-event clean-up
  • Professional Photography
  • Decor or table settings
  • Join an Event Committee: You’ll meet and collaborate with other community members to make our event amazing

CAREER LAUNCH

Are you a professional or a business that would be able to provide insight for our young people planning their futures? Career Launch encourages Club Members ages 13 to 18 to assess their skills and interests, explore careers, make sound educational decisions and prepare to join our nation’s workforce. Guest speakers from a myriad of fields are welcome to visit our teen centers and share about their career path. To coordinate, please contact your area’s corresponding Club Director. 

STEM PROGRAMS

We’d love to connect with any business or professional relating to Science, Technology, Engineering, or Math. Contact Ian Faley to learn more.

OTHER NON-PROFITS/COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS

We love to partner with other Non-Profits and Community-Based Organizations that align with our values and mission. If you are involved with an agency and have an idea for program integration or alignment, please contact our Volunteer & Mentoring Coordinator.

JOIN A COMMUNITY COUNCIL

Each Club or Area has its own Community Council, which meets regularly to support the Club. Each Community Council is responsible for advocating on behalf of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Skagit County organization as well as its programs, staff, volunteers, stakeholders, and most importantly – its Club Members. Advocacy duties include leading club membership drives, attending organization-wide and Club specific special events, scheduling Club visits with stakeholders and donors, and representing the Boys & Girls Clubs of Skagit County at various service/professional organizations, etc.  If you are interested, contact your area’s corresponding Club Director.

JOIN OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS

It’s true, our Board Members put in many hours and we are grateful for their advice and leadership. If you want to be on the ground floor of planning for our Clubs’ success, contact our CEO, Ron McHenry.
