Cape Krusenstern National Monument
Volunteer

From Afar

One of our biggest challenges is finding a way to share the Cape Krusenstern experience with those who do not have the opportunity to visit the park in person. We are excited to announce the launch of a Flickr website as a way to extend the virtual monument boundary to encompass all those who love and support our national parks, wherever you may be. Any visitor who would like to volunteer a sample of a trip to Cape Krusenstern National Monument is encouraged to join the park group on Flickr to post photos, video clips and journal entries to share with others.

In addition to contemporary experiences and information, any historic documents and photos relative to the area are welcome. A more comprehensive collection and interpretation of these items can lead other people to develop a deeper connection to your parks. Items may be mailed to park headquarters.

 

Up Close

Many good volunteers come through The Student Conservation Association (SCA), an organization dedicated to finding opportunities for resource stewardship.

If you have come to live in Kotzebue with family and are looking for long term volunteer opportunities, we would love to talk to you. Please call or stop by headquarters.

Check out the park calendar for volunteer events and other opportunities to get involved.

Did You Know?
Over 150 muskoxen live year-round on the Igichuk Hills of Cape Krusenstern National Monument. These native animals were extirpated by the late 1800’s but then reintroduced from muskox herds in Greenland.
