• Build relationships with families and school staff to help grow enrollment
• Help us shape our presence and operations in this brand-new Colorado Springs territory

• Must have your own reliable vehicle with space to transport sports equipment
• Must be available weekday and some weekend mornings (afternoon flexibility is a plus)
• Willingness to obtain CPR/First Aid and Safesport certifications (we’ll help!)
