Have fun volunteering at The Lights of Christmas

Volunteer
Do you wanna build a snowman? Or better yet, be the snowman? Come volunteer at The Lights of Christmas! There are still some openings to be the costume characters, Frolaf or Engineer Bear, during The Lights. For those who prefer working with animals, join the crew at Shepherd’s Keep or Pony Rides. There are also new activities that need volunteers this year such as the Light Maze and Cookie Decorating. And, every year we need lots of help with parking—the perfect job for folks who like to direct others where to go.

We welcome families (even children as young as 6 can help with adult supervision), individuals, civic clubs, youth groups, and pretty much anyone who has a desire to help at the best Christmas festival in the Pacific Northwest. Shifts are usually five hours and include free dinner. Plus, you get a free ticket to come back and enjoy The Lights of Christmas Nightly Festival as our guest.

Come, have some fun with us volunteering at The Lights of Christmas. Sign-up online is fast and easy at https://www.warmbeach.com/lights/volunteer.

Building Confidence through Faith

What do these have in common: a Pony Club rider working through her own fear as she tries to calm her anxious horse. An adaptive vaulter with MS, who has to re-build trust in her seemingly rebellious body as she vaults. A volunteer, realizing that being at peace and working hard can go hand-in-hand. A horsemanship instructor, learning how to convey knowledge clearly and effectively while also knowing that she does not have all the answers. Each of these individuals ...
