Serving as a Trail Guide volunteer at Audubon is a rewarding volunteer opportunity. This multi-day training provides new and returning trail guide volunteers with the skills to effectively lead small groups of elementary students on Audubon’s trails.  

Trail Guide volunteers are integral to the education programming at Audubon. Most often these volunteers work with elementary students PreK – 4th grade visiting Audubon on a fieldtrip. Volunteers lead small groups on discovery walks outside to inspire curiosity about the natural world through age appropriate activities. Information and skills learned in this training are useful in other volunteer positions at Audubon.

These four days of training are appropriate and required for both new and returning trail guide volunteers. If you are interested in becoming a trail guide and want to find out what it is all about, please attend the New Trail Guide Orientation on Wednesday, March 28 from 10:00 – 11:30 a.m. If you have questions or concerns about the requirements, please contact Katie Finch.

Special Information: This training will take place inside and outside so be prepared to go outside each day. A BYO lunch and optional walk follow the training.
