Animal Care Volunteer

Are you interested in animals, educating others and giving back to the community? Then come volunteer with us at the Chico Creek Nature Center! Our wonderful and hardworking volunteers are the backbone of the Living Animal Museum. As an Animal Care Volunteer you will learn about our animals, handle and take care of them, and lead animal introductions for kiddos and the general public. We also have a Raptor Team where you have the opportunity to work with our Red-tailed Hawk, Hunter!

To learn more about volunteering or to apply please fill out our Volunteer Application and contact our Animal Care Director Celeste Hitchman at chitchman@chicorec.com. Volunteering requires an interview and is dependant upon clearing a background check through CARD. Must be 17 or older, academic credit available upon request and if applicable with school/ class guidelines.
