We would not exist
without the help of dedicated animal lovers who volunteer at the sanctuary
everyday.
There are many ways to volunteer and every volunteer's job is equally
important
to the animals as well as
to Tranquility Trail.
_________________________________________________________________________
If you are interested
in becoming a volunteer, please complete the following steps:
1. The first step is to complete our Volunteer
Application.
After you submit an application, our
volunteer coordinator will contact you via email regarding the next available dates for
volunteer orientation. A volunteer
orientation session is required for all new volunteers.
2. After you receive the volunteer orientation schedule, sign up to attend an orientation.
Space is limited so you must be confirmed in order to attend orientation.
3. Attend volunteer orientation. If you are under 16 years of age a parent/guardian must attend with you.
Please arrive 10 minute prior to start of orientation to complete paperwork.
If you are under 16 years of age, please click here for more details.

Volunteers Under
the Age of 16
All children under 16 must be accompanied by a
parent/guardian while at the Sanctuary.
Children with their parent/guardian are
required to attend a volunteer orientation before
volunteering.
We do not have a minimum age requirement as long as children are gentle and respectful of the bunnies and our policies.
The parent/guardian is responsible for the direct supervision of the child volunteer and is required to participate with their child. We ask that parents consider the ability, temperament, and attention span of their children when planning visits or work shifts at the Sanctuary.
