Some of the opportunitiesMAY includestaffing and/or taking photos at our special events; helping out at nature centers as animal caretakers, camp counselors and naturalist aides; helping our Archeology Crew; assisting office administration; removing invasive plants and vines; helping out at park & stream cleanups; gardening; and much more!

FYI - SSL hours will only be awarded by Park staff if they were notified and have given approval for the volunteer work ahead of time. For most of our SSL opportunities, volunteers must be at least 14 and older to volunteer on their own, but we do have some family volunteer opportunities that are eligible for SSL hours (Parent AND Child must fill out separate applications).
