Volunteers find themselves immersed in a vibrant atmosphere, surrounded by passionate individuals who share a love for nature and conservation. As a Visitor Center Greeter, your role is vital in creating an unforgettable experience for every guest. You'll be their go-to guide, sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm for the trails that wind through the picturesque landscapes. Offering personalized recommendations, you'll help visitors choose the perfect trail to embark upon. But that's not all!

By promoting environmental stewardship and fostering a deep connection with nature, volunteers become catalysts for change in the community.

Shifts are 9:00am-1:00pm or 1:00pm-5:00pm
Due to the nature of this role, we ask that you commit to one 4-hour shift per week for a minimum of 3 months. Weekend Volunteers are asked to commit to 2 Saturdays per month.
