Special Projects Volunteer
If you can not volunteer regularly during the week or you would also like to help with other projects, we have lots of options!  You do not need to attend orientation to volunteer for these. And they are great options for if you'd like to enlist your family, friends, coworkers, church group or club to help.

Theme Packs:  Your group can collect and donate 100 craft packs for our participants to complete. For ex: a foam cut out of a horse/heart/flower that can be decorated with yarn/pipe cleaners and beads to make a bracelet/necklace/ornament. We can provide samples and more info.

Trail or Seasonal Theme: Groups can create a new permanent activity on the trail. For ex: wooden cut outs of animals/charters. We can provide more info.
