READY TO MAKE SOME CRAZY COSTUMES?

Are you passionate about fostering creativity in children? Do you love the idea of helping bring a child's imagination to life? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you to shine! We are calling upon spirited volunteers to help students at the Missoula Christian Montessori School (MCMS) make costumes out of their wildest dreams the wear at the Missoula Wild Walk Parade! 

Join us on Friday, March 29th, and again on Friday, April 12th, from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. each day. During your first visit, you’ll have the honor of introducing the Wild Walk to eager young minds. Together, you'll brainstorm and dream up the most fun and outlandish costume ideas. But that’s just the beginning! On your second visit, the real magic happens as you help these budding creatives bring their visionary costumes to life!

This is more than just a volunteer opportunity; it's a chance to make a lasting impact on the lives of children by encouraging their creativity, enhancing their connection with the natural world, and fostering a community spirit. Whether you're an artist, a crafter, or simply someone ready to get their hands dirty with crafting supplies, your skills and enthusiasm are needed.

Don't miss out on this chance to spread joy and creativity. Sign up now and let’s make this WildWalk one for the history books!
