Volunteers
are the heartbeat of the Forest Service. The types of work
a volunteer can perform are many and varied; the only tasks
a volunteer cannot carry out are those associated with law
enforcement.
Please visit our USDA Forest Service Volunteers web page for information on various volunteer programs including; Volunteers in the National Forests, Council on International Educational Exchange, Volunteers for Peace, Touch America Project, Passport in Time, and Helping Out in the Outdoors.
Do
you enjoy camping and meeting new people? Would
you like to spend the summer enjoying the great
outdoors? The Lassen National Forest is looking
for volunteers to be seasonal campground hosts.
Campground hosts are volunteer staff who receive
free camping and, as available, hook-ups at
one of the forest's campgrounds in exchange
for welcoming campers and helping them to enjoy
their visit. Additionally hosts also perform
light maintenance duties such as picking up
litter, painting picnic tables and a variety
of easy tasks.
Campground host opportunities are available on the Almanor, Eagle Lake and Hat Creek Ranger Districts.
