ERBM is excited to announce an improved and fully accessible volunteer application process!
Volunteers play a crucial role in ERBM activities and special events, supporting staff, bringing positivity and enthusiasm, and ensuring a safe environment. No experience is necessary! As a volunteer, you will be recognized for your efforts in various ways.
Here's how to apply:
1. Read the Volunteer Handbook.
The Volunteer Handbook is a comprehensive document that outlines responsibilities, policies, and procedures that guide ERBM volunteers. You can read the accessible digital version at erbmrec.com/volunteer-handbook or pick up a print copy at Meeker Recreation Center, 101 Ute Road, Meeker.
2. Complete Concussion Training.
Concussion training is mandatory for all ERBM volunteers. You must complete the National Alliance for Youth Sports (NAYS) Concussion Education course and submit your course certificate before your first day of volunteering. This training takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.
Print or save your completion certificate to submit with your application.
Concussion training and recertification must be completed annually.
3. Complete your Volunteer Application.
The digital Volunteer Application is fully accessible and takes only a few minutes to complete; access it at erbmrec.com/volunteer-handbook#application. By submitting your application, you agree to abide by all policies and procedures set forth in the Volunteer Handbook.
If you would prefer a print application , please stop by Meeker Recreation Center.
4. Submit your Concussion Training Certificate.
Submit your NAYS Concussion Training Certificate to the Recreation Department. Email a copy of your certificate to shelly@erbmrec.com or hand-deliver a copy to Meeker Recreation Center.
5. If needed, authorize a Background Check.
After you submit your application, ERBM staff will determine if a background check is necessary in order for you to work with high-risk groups (as outlined in the Volunteer Handbook).
If a background check is necessary, you will be contacted and asked to provide additional details. Authorize your background check at erbmrec.com/volunteer#background-check.
If you prefer, you can pick up a print version of the Background Check Authorization at Meeker Recreation Center.
We look forward to seeing you at ERBM!
