Volunteer and Job Opportunities at SCEC
We are now hiring qualified Independent Contractors.
If you have skills in the area of living history and a background in teaching children, we want to talk to you about becoming a contractor with SCEC. We are an equal opportunity employer.
Please reach out to our Executive Director, Karen Rainsong, for more information about how to apply.
Singing Creek Educational Center is a nonprofit that seeks to inspire appreciation for local history through hands-on learning experiences. Most of our programs are held in Lane County, Oregon.
We love volunteers!
We have occasional volunteer work parties (see our calendar). Families and individuals are encouraged to participate and help us improve our programs and events. It’s fun to volunteer- you get up close and personal with the center and feel good about your work. When you work on a project you get not only our thanks but the satisfaction of contributing to a wonderful place with a great mission.
We love seniors! Several of our volunteers are older folks with great stories and sometimes even heirlooms/artifacts that they can bring to share with the children. Talk to us!
Board Members
We are looking for connected community volunteers who are passionate about our mission to serve on our Board of Directors. If you live in the area and want to give your time and attention to helping us fulfill our mission, please talk to us. We can’t do it without you!
Junior Camp Helpers
If your child has attended our summer camp before and loved it, they may want to help out at Singing Creek summer camp in this role. Cost for the week is reduced and they may be asked to attend a training session beforehand. These teens get to help with set up and clean up, hands on crafts, and leading games. They will be supervised by camp counselors at all times, and will be an important part of making our camp run smoothly. Let us know if your former camper (age 12 and up) is interested. Only one teen helper allowed per camp.
In-Kind Donations Needed
If you can’t donate money or your time, but still want to support us, consider a gift of supplies or other help.
