Want to Feel All Warm and Fuzzy?
People tell us all the time that they want more opportunities to help grow the outdoor community in the Roanoke Region. Well, here’s your chance:
Sign up to become a mentor in the new Outdoor Explorers Mentoring Program, a partnership between Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwest Virginia and the Roanoke Outside Foundation.
Mentors, or “bigs,” will get paired with a child from an underserved community and have opportunities to participate in group outdoor activities together for a year.
The program will include a hiking, tubing, paddling, rock climbing, stargazing, or environmental education activity each month for children and their outdoor-minded mentors. BBBS needs 10 new Bigs that want to help mentor Littles and take part in the wonderful outdoor activities Roanoke has to offer for this program.
Each activity will be planned and coordinated by BBBS and Roanoke Outside.
All you need to participate is a little time and willingness to share your love of the outdoors.
