Volunteers

Texas Envirothon would not be able to put on this yearly environmental competition without the help of volunteers like you – join the fun!

The competition takes place over two days, which roughly break down as follows:

• On Sunday, the competition portion of the day (7:30 a.m. – 1 p.m.) requires Test Runners, Station Monitors, Team Guides, and Photographers;
• Later in the evening (6:30 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.), Team Buddies monitor teams as they prepare their oral presentation.
• On Monday, the oral presentation portion (7:15 a.m. – noon) requires Judges, Door Monitors, Timers, Runners, and Team Buddies.

Volunteering at the Texas Envirothon has many benefits:

• All volunteers will receive a Texas Envirothon t-shirt.
• You'll have opportunities to network with educators and environmental professionals from across Texas.
• You'll meet environmentally conscious students from across Texas.
• You'll also reconnect with your own avidity to make a difference for both young people and the Texas landscape.

The exact location of the competition is top secret, so we will be emailing that information closer to the event date. We can tell you that this year, we will be in the Greater Houston Area.
