Volunteering with us

The association is completely run by volunteers: from board members to hike leaders and from trail maintenance workers to our webmaster and newsletter editor, we are all members who volunteer to help manage the club and the trails.  We are always looking for volunteers to help with short-term projects or to take on some of the ongoing roles required to run the club and to maintain the trails in good order. 

 If you have some free time and can check one of these criteria: 

  • You want to gain experience in a new skill
  • You want to meet new people
  • You are passionate about hiking
  • You are interested in the environment and helping your community
  • You want to see great hiking trails in this area 

We'd like to hear from you!
