About this Opportunity
The Mount Rogers National Recreation Area is looking for volunteers to fill several visitor center staff positions.
Green Cove Station Visitor Center is an original depot that served as post office, general store, and freight office and is located adjacent to the trail. Volunteers that have worked at Green Cove in the past consider it an excellent experience.
Dates: June 10th - November 2nd
Volunteers will serve 6-8 hours/day for 2-5 days/week. This allows time to experience the Mt. Rogers National Recreation Area on your days off!
Duties Include:
-
Provide visitor information
-
Sell interpretive materials
-
Light cleaning
-
Answering the phone
-
Educate visitors on trail safety and hazards
-
Light trail maintenance
Housing and reimbursement may be provided as necessary. We prefer that this position be handled by a duo of volunteers due to high traffic to the center.
