Become part of an enthusiastic community that shares your passion. Volunteers are critical in all parts of Jackson Lake State Park. Volunteer today!
Love the water? Come help our rangers connect with boaters! You'll be out on the water, supporting water safety practices and boating rules. You may manage boat distance when a ranger makes contact, and may help with safety inspections, such as handing life jackets to rangers.
Volunteers will be a friendly face but will not be doing any law enforcement themselves or operating the boat - those roles are up to our trusty and trained rangers! Your presence on the boat, however, will be incredibly helpful - both because there must be two people on a boat at all times for safety reasons, and to help educate and support the public in their own water safety practices.
If boat assistance isn’t needed that day, you could go along with a park ranger in their truck as they support land-based recreation and regulations.
We are looking for 2-4 people for summer 2024! This role is open to anyone who wants to come hang out on the water! We'll do on-the-spot training, so no prior experience is necessary.
We prefer ages 21 and older, but could consider 18+ for right person.
