Volunteer Recognition/Reward Program
Hi everyone!
The Grand Rapids Children's Museum is looking to implement a volunteer recognition/reward program to show our appreciation for our volunteers. Currently, volunteers who reach 100 hours within one year receive a free membership for the year. We are wondering if anyone currently has a recognition program for their volunteers, and what those rewards look like. Any feedback or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Said: We had terrible build up on our first water table due to hard water issues. Had a new water table exhibit installed in 2023 along with a hardwater softener system. HUGE difference! So far, no build up at all.

Said: Hi Evan, we're sorry to hear that you are experiencing that! We would recommend installing a water softener and have a few other products that might help. I will follow up with an email.
