[SEMCO] Opportunity for college students or concerned, passionate locals

[Elizabeth Larson]

*Share Your Love of the Ocean!*


The Center for Coastal Studies in Provincetown is actively seeking
volunteers to staff our outreach booth on MacMillan Pier.


This is a great opportunity for marine science students and for permanent
or part time Cape Cod residents to become familiar with the Center for
Coastal Studies' work and share information about our local marine
ecosystems with the public.

We have shifts starting in May and running until October.

Our location can't be beat!  MacMillan Pier on Provincetown Harbor.


Help CCS as a public outreach representative on MacMillan Pier opposite the
CCS dock where our research and rescue vessels are located.  You will
welcome visitors, increasing public awareness of CCS marine mammal marine
research and conservation work.  You will also recruit new members and sell
CCS merchandise. Must enjoy working with the public, become familiar with
our various research projects, and have enough energy to spend several
hours at a time outside in summer.
Volunteers do not need extensive background in order to be great
representatives; we will provide* orientation and training* for volunteers
starting the weeks of *June 13 and June 20*, as well as provide further
informational sessions throughout the summer.

This would be a great activity for marine science students (generally age
18 and above, but we'll consider motivated high school juniors and seniors)
as well as for permanent or part time Cape Cod residents concerned about
our coastal environment. The possibility for students to create and
incorporate short term projects into their experience at CCS also exists.
We ask for a minimum commitment of  2 three-hour sessions per week for 6-8
weeks.  We are very flexible.
