Adopt-A-Trail Volunteers
Volunteers are essential in the National Park Service, working throughout the Park System to help preserve and protect our natural and cultural heritage for the enjoyment of this and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2007, 167,000 volunteers donated 5.4 million hours to your national parks at a value of $101,358 million.
At Cuyahoga Valley National Park, volunteers perform a wide variety of duties during every season of the year. In 2008, over 2,300 volunteers donated almost 80,000 hours to the park. Our volunteers assist at special events, provide information at visitor centers, and lead nature and history tours. They help build trails, monitor plant and animal populations, and provide administrative assistance. We rely on these dedicated volunteers to provide the highest level of quality services to our visitors and to help us protect our valuable resources. Cuyahoga Valley National Park Volunteer Program is co-managed by the National Park Service and our friends group, the Cuyahoga Valley National Park Association (CVNPA).
