The Hanauma Bay Education Program is supported by
over 100 volunteers who share
their time, their knowledge of the preserve, and passion for protecting
it. Volunteers staff the preserve's visitor center and an information
kiosk on the beach, lead educational programs and tours, and provide clerical,
grounds keeping and maintenance support for both the education program
and park staff. During 2003, volunteers donated 13,000 hours educating,
and enhancing the experiences of, the one million people visiting Hanauma
Bay. Our volunteers range in age from high school students to retirees
and they commute from all over Oahu. We even have a few seasonal volunteers
who travel from the continental U.S. and Canada for a several months each
year.
Do you like to talk story with all kinds of people?
Are you looking for an excuse to hang out on the beach? Would you like
to learn more about marine life in Hawaii? Do you care about protecting
Hawaii's marine environment? Anyone who can answer "yes" to
one or more of these questions should consider our program. In addition,
all volunteers must be able to attend volunteer
training, meet the minimum requirements for their preferred volunteer
position, and be at least 14 years of age. (Younger volunteers may
be considered, if they volunteer as a team with an adult.)
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer at
Hanauma Bay, take a few minutes to
review the different volunteer positions
available, as well as the time commitment, training and other requirements
associated with each position. Applications
are available online, or you may contact us
to have an application mailed to you.
