TEEN PROGRAMS

Teen Volunteers

Grade 7 - 12

Too young to work? Too old to be a participant? Would you like to volunteer for the Shorewood Recreation Department this summer? Volunteering allows your teen to gain useful on-the-job experience and offers the ability to create meaningful connections with the Recreation Department team. Sign up for our Teen Volunteer Interest List online at www.shorewoodrecreation.org with course #4001. When Shorewood Recreation has a volunteer position available, we will reach out via email to our Interest List. Please be sure to include the teen’s email, as we like to communicate with the teen directly. Please note, signing for the Interest List does not guarantee a volunteer position. We may have more interested teens than spots available and these positions are given out on a first come first serve basis.

SIS Athletics

The purpose of the Shorewood School District’s youth sports programs is to guide each participant, boys and girls, through an organized program that will develop the fundamentals of each sport. Sports programs are open to any student who lives in the Village of Shorewood. Whatever sport your child chooses, they will be taught the fundamentals of the sport. Skill development will be stressed throughout the season and participants will receive a basic understanding of rules, sportsmanship and teamwork by the end of the season. Please contact Taz Landry, Shorewood School District’s Athletic Director, via e-mail at tlandry@shorewood.k12.wi.us or phone at (414) 963-6924 for information on SIS Athletics.
