What’s Happening at Solid Ground

Help Kids Learn & Grow at Solid Ground’s Summer Camp!

Solid Ground Summer Camp runs Monday-Thursday from June 14th – Aug 5th and is available to students in grades K-6 at our East Metro Place facility. Each day of camp begins with academic tutoring in the morning, followed by a light lunch, then finishes with an enrichment activity in the afternoon. We are looking for volunteers to help at least once a week in the following areas:

  • Academic Tutoring
    • Mondays & Tuesdays: 10:30am-12:30pm
    • Wednesdays & Thursdays: 10:30am-11:30am
  • Afternoon Activities
    • Mondays & Tuesdays: 1:30pm-3:00pm
  • Field Trip Chaperone
    • Thursdays: 12:30pm-3:00pm

As a volunteer, your help would be needed to work 1-on-1 with a student to help make sure that they are following along with the activities and are having fun while doing so. No prior experience is needed.
