The minimum age requirement is 8 years. Volunteers under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. As a reminder, volunteers will enter through the Volunteer Center entrance, not the main entrance. Please look for the double doors toward the north end of the building with the Volunteer Center sign on the building.
