About this Event
Calling Epic 6th-12th Grade Students,
Join us as Epic Charter Schools heads to the SPCA Animal Shelter in Tulsa on November 12th for a day of giving back to our community.
What to expect: We will be dividing into groups to help with a few different jobs. Jobs may include cleaning kennels, prepping items for the dog shelter, helping with laundry and dishes, and working in groups to make pet treats. For each group, there is a possibility of getting dirty, so please wear closed-toe shoes.
Important Information: Parents, there are limited spots for volunteers at this location. Please only register to volunteer as an adult if your child needs you to stay with them during their shift. We want as many students as possible to be able to volunteer. Students have to be at least 11 years old to volunteer at this location. Parents who are not volunteering or parents with younger siblings are able to wait in the small waiting room, in their car, or outside on the bench. Thank you so much for your understanding.
Students: Epic student email accounts cannot receive emails from Eventbrite. Therefore, you will need to provide an alternative email address where you can receive the registration confirmation and all updates that are sent about this event.
If you are a student seeking service hours/credit, this opportunity will help you fulfill your requirements. To find out more information about this location, please click the link at the bottom of this page.
CHECK-IN Procedure: Upon arrival, please check in with an Epic Family Engagement staff member who will be in Epic gear and located outside the front door of the volunteer building. We’d also love to see you in your Epic gear!
Schedule:
- 9:45am Volunteer Check-In
- 10:00am- 12:00 pm Volunteer Time
- 12:00pm Conclusion
CLOTHING & SUPPLIES RECOMMENDED:
- All volunteers must wear closed-toed shoes for safety precautions. Individuals wearing flip-flops, sandals, or any shoes where toes are exposed will be unable to volunteer.
Why is this for 6th-12th Graders? This Community Service Opportunity is for Epic Charter School students in grades 6th and up only, at the request of this location, as this is their policy for the safety of volunteers.
Policies: Students cannot be dropped off to attend without a parent or guardian unless the student is of driving age and drives themselves.
You will register using Eventbrite, which will hold your spot for as a reservation. This enables the school and the location to staff and plan appropriately.
Pathways Students: Pathways students may only participate when attending with their own enrolled Epic child. Please register as a guest, not as a student, since student reservations are for students age 18 and under only.
Media Policy: This is a public event, and photographs and/or video may be taken during the activity. If you prefer your student not to have a photograph or video taken, please let our Epic Family Engagement staff know during check-in.
Inclement Weather Plan: If we have inclement weather, we will send out communication by email through Eventbrite to let you know if the event has been canceled.
Service Animals: This location does not allow service animals due to the food packing that is within the facility.
Sensory Bags: Sensory bags will be available to check out for use at this event. Upon arrival, see any Epic Family Engagement team member to check a bag out and return all sensory bags to an Epic Family Engagement team member before leaving the event.
Sign Language Services: To request a sign language interpreter for an Epic student at this event, please use this link: ASL Request Link. Requests must be submitted at least 72 hours in advance of the event. The link can also be found on the Epic under the About tab → Requests & Forms.
Cancellations: How do I cancel my reservation? To cancel the reservation and allow other students to attend in those spots, you will go to the email sent from Eventbrite with the subject line: Your Tickets for the Tulsa SPCA Community Service. Then scroll to the bottom of the email and click the words "View and Manage your online order." This will open up spots for other families and is very important as the location needs accurate numbers before we arrive.
