The KANA Wellness Center invites you to become a volunteer for our Summer Youth Fitness Program.  This youth fitness class meets Mondays and Wednesday at Baranof Park from 10am-11am. This program runs from June 5th through August 16th. There is no class on Monday, June 19th due to the Juneteeth holiday. 

With your support, we can provide Kodiak’s youth with positive role models.  A volunteer DOES NOT have to commit to all classes! You can come to one or two, or sign up for all of them. We do ask that you commit to your volunteer spot in advance and give us notice if you cannot make it so we can find other chaperones.

• Demonstrate behaviors appropriate for a positive role model for youth. 

• Understand the rules of the program and be willing to enforce those rules as appropriate. 

• If qualified and necessary, the volunteer must be willing to assist with first aid and offer knowledge of environment, culture, and safety.

• Seek to actively listen to youth; you may learn something from them!

• Volunteers work together; always interact with youth with another volunteer present.

• If a child reports an incidence of child abuse to a volunteer; the volunteer MUST report it to a KANA employee immediately.

• Report any conflicts, incidents, or concerns to KANA staff as soon as appropriate!
