Volunteering

Avalonia’s volunteers are the heart and soul of Avalonia! We estimate that more than 10,000 hours were donated by Avalonia volunteers in 2017. That’s amazing! What is even more amazing is that we need more. We have added over 1,300 acres over the last eight years, but the number of active volunteers has remained steady at about 120. As we grow, our volunteer corps needs to grow, too, so we can fulfill our commitment to keep our trails safe and clear, our boundaries marked, and our documents properly filed and recorded. Our volunteers are literally our “boots on the ground.”

What do you like to do? Do you love the outdoors? Do you like to work with a team or are you a self-starter? Please join us!
