Volunteer Opportunities within our Bennington GMC
Volunteers are the life-blood of our organization and our community. Could you help with one of these??
  • Leadership for Outings - lead or co-lead a hike, bike, paddle or other. Help organize picnics, slide shows, potlucks, overnight trips. Suggest outings.
  • Trail/Shelter Maintenance - help with trail and shelter maintenance, adopt a trail, prepare refreshments for trail/shelter crews.
    Maintenance can include clearing brush and trees from trails, creating waterbars, repainting blazes, repairing or replacing directional signs, clearing blowdowns (trees or branches that have fallen over the trail), bringing supplies up to and repairing shelters. Sometimes The GMC will provide all tools that you would use, just bring some work clothes, work gloves, weatherproof gear, and your lunch. Dates are in our Events Schedule section.
    ​Individuals can adopt a section of the Long Trail or a feeder trail. Check the GMC website for volunteer opportunities.
  • Special Events - organize a special event, introduce others to hiking, plan a family/child centered walk/hike
  • Newsletter - contribute ideas/article for the club newsletter
  • Website - contribute photos or ideas for material to include on the club website
​For the above use the CONTACT page to get in touch with us!
