Ongoing Volunteer Opportunities
Ride & Report
Commitment: 2 hours per month (any day or time) – Ride an assigned 2 mile section of the Sand Creek trail and email a short report of any observed trail maintenance needs or other observations.
Administrative Work
Commitment: 6-10 hrs per month (during the work day; some projects may be able to be done remotely on your own time) – Interested in volunteering without getting your hands dirty? Come help us out in the Sand Creek office! We always need help updating paperwork and sending out mailings.
Spanish Translators
Commitment: 2-4hrs per month (during the work day or during special events) – Are you fluent in Spanish? We are always trying to make our materials available in Spanish as well as English. Help us translate posters, signs, and pamphlets.
Trail Maintenance
Commitment: 2-10hrs per month (any day and time) – If you can’t make it to our monthly volunteer clean-up events, help us out on your own time. There are always places along the trail that need work. We provide the tools, and will pick up the trash bags when you’re done!
NPET Team Leaders
Commitment: 3hrs per month (the 1st Saturday of most months, from 10am-noon) – Do you want to take a leadership role during our monthly volunteer events? We need team leaders to support other volunteers during NPET. Leaders will guide groups to work sites and will oversee the volunteer team activities.
Special Event Team Leaders
Commitment: 4 hours per month (on an as-needed basis) – Sometimes we host special volunteer projects for corporate, scout, or school groups and need extra team leaders to guide a group of volunteers doing a specific task.
Our volunteers have invested time, talent, sweat and experience to help build the Sand Creek Regional Greenway. We thank you for all that you do!
