Parent Chaperones
Each year, we are fortunate to be able to bring along with us some parent chaperones to assist with the running of the camp. These volunteers help chaperone on the bus ride to and from camp, assist with a class taught by a Highland or Wanake staff member, and assist with supervision during lunch. Additionally, we will be in need of some volunteers with a medical background to assist with our medical center. All chaperones will need to get a background check completed through Medina County ESC prior to our departure for camp. If you have any questions or are interested in volunteering, please contact Melany Malquest at mmalquest@highlandschools.org by May 23. Please include in your email the name of your 6th grader, and if you are interested in volunteering in the medical center or as a chaperone. If you have a special talent or would be interested in leading a class rather than assisting, include that information in your e-mail as well. All prospective volunteers will be confirmed before June 1.
