Get Involved: Highline Lake State Park - Maintenance/Visitor Center Host

Maintenance/Visitor Center Host

Description:

Highline Lake is known as an "oasis in the desert" because of our lush grass and healthy shade trees. With high visitation in the summer, it takes a small army to keep our park looking beautiful. Volunteers are commonly found mowing the grass, assisting with flood irrigation of the campground, and doing light trail maintenance, just to name a few.

Volunteers who assist in the Visitor Center usually serve a few hours in the morning by selling Daily Park Passes to visitors entering the park. They may also assist with hunting/fishing license sales and by providing directions to park visitors.

The Visitor Center is a very fast-paced environment but it is usually the first contact a visitor has with the park, so excellent customer service is a must. Visitor Center volunteers also assist with interpretive programs on the weekends.

Maintenance volunteers are an essential part of our facility upkeep.

Time Commitment:

Morning shifts to beat the heat! 4 days on duty, 4 days off.

Volunteer Benefits:

Free, full hookup campsite in exchange for volunteer service!

Winters in the Grand Valley can be mild and perfect for winter camping. Enjoy being part of a great park team and enjoy winter hosting opportunities!
