This Open House, a drop-in style event, will offer opportunities to learn about the three "tracks" of volunteering for Open Lands and Trails:

Stewardship track: site restoration, site clean-up, planting, invasive species removal, special projects, trail maintenance, native garden care, and citizen science projects

Public Outreach track: nature cabin docent team, trail host program, event booth staffing, astronomy and storytelling night support, presenting public programs, leading guided walks (including bird walks), plus training options offered for these opportunities

Education track:  school field trip educators (spring and fall sessions), youth group nature instruction, history tours, assisting with monthly preschool environmental education programs (PEEPs), and helping young people solve our Critter Scene Investigations (1/2 day field trip in town)

The Open Lands & Trails Program has an awesome team of volunteers, and still the need for more to meet demand and use of our natural area sites and trails. Please consider attending this no-obligation informative session. Current volunteers and staff will be on hand to answer questions about the many ways volunteer help support Open Lands & Trails. 

For more details on the event, see Offero. You may register or just drop in between 5-7 pm, at the Chilson Recreation/Senior Center.  For information about specific volunteer opportunities, visit our website.
