Volunteers play a large role in visitor satisfaction.
Volunteers are needed to help the National Park Service staff visitor centers along the canal. Duties include providing area information, answering phones and correspondence, and operating a small bookstore. Training is provided. Visitor centers are located in Georgetown, Great Falls, Ferry Hill, Brunswick, Hagerstown, Williamsport, Hancock, and Cumberland.
The park offers RV sites for out-of-state volunteers serving at either the Williamsport or Hancock Visitor Centers.
