What is Day on the Farm?
Day on the Farm is hosted by Society for disABILITIES and Jim Sanchez at Sanchez Ranch. The Day on the Farm program introduces individuals with disabilities to activities typically seen on a working farm. Activities include, but are not limited to: horseback riding, hayrides, arts and crafts, and more. At the end of the day, there will be a BBQ style lunch provided by the Oakdale Lions Club. Lunch is free to all volunteers.
What does the Day on the Farm program need?
We need volunteers that are willing to assist children and young adults with diverse abilities, to enjoy a day on a working farm. Each volunteer will be assigned to a craft or activity station. Volunteers will assist participants, along with the participant’s family in various activities.
How much time is involved?
Volunteers must be available from 8:30AM to 2:00PM. Between 9:00-10:00AM, volunteers will receive orientation for the day and help with set up. It’s important to be on time so we can provide instructions and assign volunteers to their duties for the day. Please be prepared to stay and help with tear down & cleanup. All volunteers 18 and over must pass a background check.
What do I bring?
Dress for a day on a farm, a big smile and a heart for children. We will provide bandanas for all volunteers.
