DIAD Description
Join the JLP Sustainability Project for a hands-on Earth Month partnership! We are looking for two energetic volunteers to help us lead a group of 1st and 2nd-grade Girl Scouts in a community improvement project.
The goal of this initiative is to enhance the safety and usability of Woodland Park by installing solar-powered lighting around the playground perimeter. Volunteers will assist Sustainability Project committee members in facilitating a brief, interactive lesson on solar energy before helping the scouts with the physical installation.

*Team Collaboration: Partner with JLP Sustainability Project members to manage small groups of children and keep the activity on schedule.
*Requirements
*Energy & Enthusiasm: Ability to keep 6- and 7-year-olds engaged and excited about environmental stewardship.
*Please arrive 10 minutes early (3:20 PM) for a quick briefing on the installation layout.
This “Done In A Day” shift directly supports our commitment to local sustainability and community partnerships. By participating, you are helping to provide a brighter, safer recreational space for Pelham families while inspiring the next generation of environmental leaders.
