Current Volunteer Opportunities
Hersheypark & Giant Center Volunteers Needed:
Hershey Park opened for the 2026 season for “Springtime in the Park” on April 3 and will run through May 21 on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. After May 21st the park will be open all day every day for the summer into September. Volunteers are needed for food & beverage, games, parking, zoo bridge, rides, etc. Shifts are available at the Giant Center. Ushering and food & beverage at the stadium will soon be available. As a volunteer, you can earn 1 to 2 vouchers for admittance to Hershey Park (good for 18 months from issuance date) and SSC gets paid $8/hr for each hour you work. Half of the money that SSC earns is donated to a charity, e.g., Central PA Food Bank, Wounded Warriors Patrol, and others. To participate, contact Lovena Nickle at lovnic53@comcast.net or 717-541-8803. You will need to provide an email address for Lovena to communicate with you regarding open shifts. Weekend Rides & Hikes Weekends are a great time to get out and enjoy the great outdoors with some awesome folks. Weekly rides often include an easy ride, moderate ride and occasionally some fast road rides. Even if you haven’t cycled since you were clipping baseball cards to the bike, or are into a walk/hike with other like-minded people, come join the group. Contact Mike Gavin at emailriders1@comcast.net for a schedule of the weekly bike rides or hikes and to be added to Mike's weekly email updates. If need be, recommendations can be made to obtain a cost-efficient, entry-level bike. |
