Starting in mid-September, Junior Docents will be divided into two crews, one to work mostly on Sundays (with some required Saturday involvement) and the other half to work on Saturdays. On these "regular Junior Docent days" the shift will be from 10:45 am to 5:45 pm. They fall mostly on the 2nd and 4th weekends, exceptions are underlined below. Required Saturdays for the Sunday crew are also underlined.

Keep in mind that Junior Docents are allowed only 4 absences during the June to May Junior Docent season. A 4-week advanced notice is required (except for sick days)
