Volunteer

Volunteers are essential to OLT. The best thing visitors can give is stewardship of OLT’s lands, resources, and culture. Please consider donating your time to help us work more efficiently toward protecting northern San Luis Valley’s unique resources and open space.

Volunteer Events

Come Volunteer with Us!

At OLT, we believe in the power of community and the incredible impact each individual can have. We’re excited to invite you to join us in making a difference in 2025. Here are a few opportunities for you and other committed community members to join the Conservation Committee.

Campground Clean Up

Join us on Sunday, April 20th, 2025 for a day of volunteering to advance our work towards fire mitigation. Meet at the Welcome Center at 9am for a few hours of gathering dead wood in the campground. We will focus on making the tent sites safer and more attractive.

Adopt A Highway

On September 20, 2025 we’ll gather at the Welcome Center at 9am to participate in Saguache County’s Adopt-A-Roadway Program, and clean up County Road GG. Staff will transport us from the Welcome Center to various stretches of GG, where we will work in pairs to gather trash from the roadside as we socialize with other OLT members.

A General Note for both volunteer events

Volunteers are invited to camp with us for 2 nights at no charge. Plan to arrive the day before the event to set up and soak. Volunteer events are scheduled for 4 hours unless otherwise noted.
