The Village welcomes volunteers from the community, particularly those who are interested in long-term commitments that really make a difference.  Current volunteer opportunities include the following options: 

 All potential volunteers must complete a volunteer application.  Per Village policy for child safety, those over age 17 must complete State Police and Child Protective Services background checks prior to volunteering, which may take 1-2 months.  Once your application is cleared, the Volunteer Coordinator will call you to set up an interview.

To apply, please complete our volunteer application and return it to the address listed below:
