Whether it is a program, internship, non-profit, or event, finding the right one for you starts with determining not only your interests, but also your goals and avaliability. The Shark Tooth Bay community resource hub provides an up to date database with a diverse range of events. Events range from educational classes and volunteer opportunities to cultural festivals and environmental projects. You can begin finding the right resource for you by figuring out what you want to gain from the experience.
Start by asking yourself a few questions. Do you want to learn new skills? Do you want to meet new people? Do you want to support a cause? Or do you want to explore a career path? By looking at the description attached to each event, you can learn about each resources objective, time commitment, and outcomes. It is helpful if you look at your own schedule to see if you have the capacity of commitment to take on a one time event or a regularly occurring initiative. You can also sit down and have a conversation with your teachers, mentors, family members, instructors, or community members that could give you advice on what you should try.
Many of the resources that Shark Tooth Bay offers are organized into age groups, skill levels, or time commitments. By looking at the way events are categorized, you can make it easier to narrow down your choices. This website’s goal is to help you closely match your interests and goals to what is open to you. You can make it easier on yourself by choosing a resource that is both relevant and fun to you. When looking at all of the resources we offer, make sure to think every choice thoroughly to ensure that your time, energy, and focus are spent on resources that promote both your personal growth and community participation.
