Description

The Garden of the Gods team is looking for volunteers to help with our School Field Trip Programs inside the park.

We offer educational guided walks with our School Programs every Tuesday & Wednesday (9:45 - 11:30 am) & Thursdays (9:45 - 11:30 and 11:45 - 1:30 pm) throughout the school year. Field trips cover local geology, ecology and history, and all training will be provided. Volunteers can "shadow" until you feel ready to be involved more at your own pace. Background checks are mandatory.

Call or email for more information (719-219-0108). You can join anytime of the year!
