THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING TO BE A BUTTERFLY HOUSE GUIDE!

Volunteers in the Butterfly House

Butterfly House is open June 14 – September 21, 2013

Basic job requirements:

  • Butterfly House Guides are proactive.
  • Butterfly House Guides – smilingly – approach visitors and welcome them. They make sure that the doors are closed after people enter and leave the Butterfly House.
  • Butterfly House Guides answer questions about the butterflies and plants.
  • Guides direct the visitor to the appropriate resource for questions they cannot answer.
  • Butterfly House Guides help all visitors have a safe and fun experience.
  • Make sure all children enter and leave with parent, guardian,or group. If a child is wandering without the parent, please stay with the child. If possible find out their name and/or age or where their parent was last seen. Some children may be too young to provide any information. Immediately radio all staff for assistance to locate the missing parent.
