Champion Play at Forest Lawn Public Library and Become a "Play Champion!" Volunteer today!

Play Champion volunteers create enriching experiences for babies, children, and their caregivers by encouraging play in the Library’s Early Learning Centres. They create a welcoming environment and play with our youngest Library visitors (and their families) and impart the importance of play in early childhood development. Volunteers select a regular weekly shift (usually two hours long), and we require a minimum commitment of four months.

If you love playing and interacting with children, chatting with parents, are friendly, and have good communication skills, you may be a perfect fit for this program! We are currently recruiting volunteers with daytime availability at:
Forest Lawn Library (4807 8 Ave SE)
Mondays 4 - 5:45 pm or 5:30 - 7 pm
Tuesdays 4 - 5:45 pm or 5:30 - 7 pm
Wednesdays 4 - 5:45 pm or 5:30 - 7 pm
Thursdays 4 - 5:45 pm or 5:30 - 7 pm
Saturdays 1 - 3:15 pm or 3 - 5 pm
Sundays 1 - 3:15 pm or 3 - 5 pm

A three-hour group training session will be provided prior to starting with the program.

This program runs on an ongoing basis with no firm start or end date. Volunteers commit to one shift on a weekly basis for a minimum of four months but are welcome to stay on long-term.
