Thus far, we have four events coming up in February and March. So, if you've ever thought about volunteering for a few hours to help out at an event - we could sure use the help! It's the perfect opportunity for NEW VOLUNTEERS to learn how to talk to the public about house rabbits and CHRS. New volunteers are always paired with experienced Educators. We just ask that you be familiar with the CHRS/HRS philosophy on rabbit care and feeding, as you will represent CHRS to the public.

We wanted to get the information out to everyone now so that you can mark it on your calendar. More info will follow, so watch your e-mail, as well as this page, for further details. Also, we are flexible in scheduling people for these events - your help for even a few hours is appreciated!

As for the list of events, here is the information currently available:

If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions, please contact Julie OR Terri. Be sure to list the name and date of the event you are interested in (and hours if you can only do a partial event). I know this may be a bit difficult, since we only have partial information concerning times right now.

We appreciate your participation!
