Eagle Mount's volunteers are the lifeblood of the therapeutic programs
and essential to our successful team. We welcome new volunteers and
recognize each individual’s valued contribution as a gift providing
rewarding experiences for all. Most programs require more than
one volunteer for each participant. As Eagle Mount continues to expand,
so does our need for volunteers.
The programs at Eagle Mount embody personal growth and freedom to
enjoy all life has to offer. The process of giving back is rewarding
to both the participants and volunteers. While sharing the joy
of skiing, swimming, horseback riding, fishing or volunteering in
any of the other programs, one thing is certain – we always
have fun! Many volunteers say, "I get just as much out of the
program as the participant does." And, although most volunteers
are a bit unsure as to what to expect when they first get involved,
many of our volunteers end up enjoying it so much they come back year
after year. Training is provided focusing on the unique needs
of our participants as well as the adaptive equipment we use to allow
them to participate.
