Volunteering
To volunteer to assist with the Run for the Hills trail run on May 22, 2022 please send an email to RunfortheHills@oswhills.org with your contact information and we will be in touch. Thanks!
The Friends of the Oswegatchie Hills Nature Preserve has established a team of dedicated volunteers, who are working hard to help us accomplish our goals:
- Responsible management of the Preserve, and
- Acquiring the remaining undeveloped lands of The Oswegatchie Hills.
Let us know how you would like to be involved! You can work at home, or as part of a group… out in the Preserve, in the community or on your computer… on a short-term project when you have the time… or on a long-term effort, providing leadership, planning or support functions. Most importantly -- there is a place for everyone who shares our interest in preserving The Hills to help us toward our common goal.
Please contact us vial volunteers@oswhills.org to get more information, or to let us know how you would like to help.
Below see some examples of teams that currently need help, ideas and enthusiasm. As we move forward, we may create new teams or groups, and, at times, there will be positions for volunteers who enjoy working across several teams on a particular issue.
