    About the Program

    Walk+Connect is our casual community walk designed to help locals meet new people, decompress, and explore nearby trails. It’s simple, friendly, and welcoming, and we’re looking for volunteer greeters who can help set the tone.

    What You’ll Do

    As a Walk+Connect volunteer, your only real job is to help people feel welcome and guide the group along the planned route. Specifically, you will:

    • Arrive 10–15 minutes early to say hello to participants
    • Help attendees check the meeting point and feel comfortable joining in
    • Walk with the group and ensure everyone knows the route
    • Assist with light coordination (e.g., pointing out rest points, keeping the group together)

    Who We’re Looking For

    You’ll be a great fit if you:

    • Are friendly, approachable, and enjoy talking to people
    • Like light to moderate walking
    • Want to help build a more connected local community

    Why Volunteer?

    • Meet new people and support a positive community activity
    • Be part of a grassroots nonprofit that values creativity, inclusion, and local connection
    • Low-stress, high-impact volunteer role
    • Great for anyone who wants to give back to the community without a heavy time commitment
