wondertrek Internship

This is a hands-on learning position designed for students and emerging professionals interested in learning through play, education, outdoor recreation, environmental studies, natural resources, DNR pathways, nonprofit work, community development, and/or child development.

This intern works alongside trained Playworkers to support the delivery of interactive, inquiry-based programming while gaining professional experience in community engagement and nonprofit operations.

I’m ready to help!

We’re building something extraordinary at WonderTrek Children’s Museum, but we can’t do it alone. With your support, we can bring this vision to life. Every gift moves us closer to opening day — and closer to a place where play is endless and exploration opens every door to wonder.

“So exciting to see this new museum come to life

We love the community events and Studio Explorations!” 

– Mary

“I’ve been able to attend and observe at several of WonderTrek’s Studio Explorations.

Each time, I saw children across a range of ages discover something fascinating to explore, sometimes giant blue blocks, colorful scarves, balls, or wobbly worlds. This kind of play—child-directed, social, physical, and joyful—is not only fun, but also critical to children’s well-being.”

– Jeanne

We're ready for you

After ten years of dreaming up a children's museum like no other, we’re gearing up to open WonderTrek’s Outdoor Adventure in early 2026.

But first, we need you. More than $6,000,000 has been raised thanks to visionary donors and lots of grant writing. Now, we’re in the final push and WonderTrek needs everyone who cares for kids and the vitality of our region to join the campaign. With $1 million to go, every donation counts!
