  • CURRENTLY FULL - Lands Committee: Want to explore new places?  Join the Lands Committee! Members help develop new projects, visit conserved properties for annual monitoring, and help set management policies on ACT lands. 

    Meets monthly for 1.5 - 2 hours; plus site visits and conserved lands monitoring as needed.

  • Become a Land Monitor: Love to bushwhack? Looking to spend time outdoors on conserved properties off the beaten path? Monitoring might be for you! We are in need of folks comfortable off-trail to help with annual monitoring of our properties.

  • Outdoors Program Volunteer:  Do you have outdoor leadership experience or naturalist skills, or would you like to learn?  We'd love to have you volunteer with our outdoor programs for kids and adults.  

  • Trail Volunteer: Grab your tools and join us building new trails and maintaining our growing trail network.


no bugs, no sweat

  • Much Needed Office Help: Are you well organized and flexible? Have computer or database skills? Enjoy writing thank you notes or making thank you calls? Any of these skills would be great! At certain times of the year we also need help with envelope stuffing and note writing for mailings we do.


be creative

  • Take Photos and Video: Pictures are indeed worth a thousand words, and we'd love help getting great images. Share photos from our events or explorations on ACT lands through a secure online portal and see your images used on the web and in print!

  • Design for publication: The web, e-news, postcards, posters - all ways to exercise your creative flair!

Learning Opportunities

  • There are plenty of opportunities for volunteers of all ages, backgrounds, and skillsets to benefit from their involvement with ACT. Last year, trail maintainers completed a personalized chainsaw safety course to sharpen their skills (and their saws).
