Team Job Descriptions

 

Each HERF family is required to serve one “Team Position” for the school year.  Descriptions are below to assist you in choosing the team that suits your family best. Please choose a team on which you would be willing to work. After processing the applications, you will be contacted by our HERF Jobs Coordinator and/or your Team Leader to discuss your placement.

HERF serves the greater Roanoke Valley homeschool community by providing resources and opportunities to experience Christian fellowship through events and social activities as well as service and Christ-centered ministry to one another.

FIELD TRIP TEAM

     

As a Field Trip Team member, you will plan & host two field trips of your choosing. This will include setting up the Facebook event (having access to a Facebook account is necessary for this team), collecting any money and/or release forms (having a PayPal or Venmo account would be helpful but not required), and communicating all details with our group members as well as the field trip site.

​

HERF welcomes all field trip ideas and we allow other team members to host field trips when they want to. For example, Member A is on another team but wants the large group discounted rate at Field Trip Z. Member A hosts a field trip at Field Trip Z in order to get a discounted rate that benefits Member A's family AND other HERF Members. If this is your situation, please reach out. We are always open to more field trips.
