This drop-in style Open House event will offer opportunities to learn about the many ways you can volunteer with Open Lands & Trails. Prospective volunteers can visit multiple stations for information and chat with active volunteers and staff members about the three "tracks" of volunteer opportunities: 

Environmental Education:  field trip programs for grades K-5, PEEPs - preschool environmental education programs, "Critter Scene Investigations," and other programs. 

Stewardship:  raptor monitoring, natural area restoration (habitat plantings, weed removal, clean-ups), trail maintenance, pollinator garden care, citizen science, and other projects. 

Public Outreach:  nature cabin docent team, trail hosting, event booth staffing, program support, presenting public programs, leading guided walks (wildflowers, birds, geology, history, or other topics). 

Join us for this no-obligation session to learn about all the ways you can support local Open Lands & Trails. Drop in, ask questions, and pick up some info to review at home. No registration required.  Meet in the Chilson Senior Center - Cherry Room. 

For details on the event, see Offero, Loveland's online system for Open Lands & Trails programs and volunteer opportunities.  More information about specific volunteer opportunities is available on our Volunteer Opportunities & Environmental Education web page. All training, materials, and support are provided free for volunteers.
