Ocean Camp Volunteers Needed!
Pacific Whale Foundation
Volunteer with Pacific Whale Foundation’s Education Team for Ocean Camp this summer. We are looking for volunteers to chaperon on field trips and snorkel trips. We would love to have you join us in our mission to teach the keiki of Maui about the amazing wonders of the ocean and the natural environment.
Participants must complete a background check and keiki safety trainings in advance of volunteering. Shifts are first come first serve and approximately 4 hours long. Volunteers meet students outside PWF’s discovery Center Classrooms located in Maui Harbor Shops at Maʻalaea Harbor.
Please email kaitlyncole@pacificwhale.org if you are interested or would like to learn more.
Session Information
June 8 – June 12| Wayfinders of the Sea
Set sail on a journey across the Pacific as campers learn how Polynesian wayfinders navigated using the stars, winds, and waves. Through hands-on activities and lessons, we discover the skills, strength, and stories that guided these incredible ocean voyagers to their new home on the Hawaiian islands.
June 22 – June 26| Totally Jaw-some
Step into the role of an ocean predator and discover what it takes to hunt, hide, and survive in the wild. Campers will explore food chains, predator-prey relationships, and the special adaptations that make ocean hunters so powerful.
July 6 – July 10| No Bone Zone
Can you imagine having no bones? Dive into the weird and wonderful world of animals without backbones, from octopus and insects to crabs and corals. Campers will explore how these strange, squishy creatures survive, move, and defend themselves in the big blue ocean and beyond.
July 13 – July 17 | Blubber, Baleen and Breaches, Oh My!
Explore the lives of whales, seals and other marine mammals as campers learn how these amazing animals breathe, communicate, and survive in the ocean. From songs to migrations, we’ll discover what makes marine mammals so unique.
July 20-24 | 8am–4pm
Ola I Ka Wai: Follow the journey of water from mauka to makai. Join us to discover how streams, reefs, and everything in between are connected and important to the history of Hawaiʻi. Campers will explore how life depends on clean water and how we can protect this natural resource.
