Volunteer Opportunities

Here are a few ways to be involved in campus life:

Support Our Athletes

The students love to see you on the sidelines at competitions! Please support our teams by attending home games and by hosting team events and receptions on campus before or after games. For a schedule of games, click here. To arrange to host a reception or to become a team parent, contact Beth Hayes in the Alumni and Parent Programs Office at 603.569.7133.

Lead a Trip

Local parents can take a group of students off campus in a Brewster Microbird bus for a weekend activity, such as a trip to the shopping outlets, a movie in Gilford, a hike in the Lakes Region, downhill skiing, or an afternoon of apple picking. To arrange a trip, contact Jaime Wehrung, director of residence life, at 603.569.1600. The students welcome your involvement!

Drama/Arts

  • Attend performances whenever possible.
  • Surprise the group with a special snack or treat.
  • Send flowers the day of the show for the director or for the cast to share.
  • Take a group photo and have copies made for all members of the group.

Show You Care

Don't forget that your kids miss you and home. Here are some suggestions on ways to remind them that you're thinking of them.

  • Send your child lots of mail or a care package from home.
  • Call a local florist and have some flowers or balloons sent to them at school (to the attention of Mrs. Linda Larson in the main office).
    • Dandelion Florists - 1.800.548.1347
    • Hathcock Florists - 603.569.1235
    • Linda's Flowers and Gifts - 603.569.4513
  • Gift certificates to local restaurants are always appreciated -- Dunkin Donuts, Louis Pizza, the Wolfeboro House of Pizza, or Seabird (an Asian restaurant), for example.
  • Send them a photo of a family pet, their siblings, or a photo of anything that would make them smile.
  • Order a cake from Brewster's Dining Services as a surprise for your child for a birthday or special day. Call Jim Carey at 603.569.7120 (603.569.7199 fax) at least one week before the special day if you would like to order a cake. Prices are:
    • $12 for an 8" round cake, which serves 8-10 people
    • $18 for a 1/4-sheet cake, which serves 12-16 people
    • $24 for a 1/2-sheet cake, which serves 18-24 people
