Description:
Read Before You Register! Need-to-Know Details:
We greatly appreciate you volunteering your time and energy to care for Colorado's outdoor places during COVID-19. To help provide a fun and safe experience for all, there are a few temporary changes to be prepared for:
You may only register yourself.Every volunteer must sign our digital COVID-specific forms ahead of time to be able to attend.
You must provide your own food.VOC will not be providing meals at this time.
You must bring a face mask and work gloves.Pleaseclick herefor our full packing list of required and recommended items.
Cancellation & Waitlists:Due to this year's limited number of projects and volunteer spots, we expect projects to fill quickly with waitlists. If you need to cancel, please emailoutreach@voc.orgas soon as possible so we can free your spot for another volunteer and have a full workforce. If you are waitlisted for multiple projects, please call us at 303-715-1010 ext. 116 and we can help you find an open project, if available.
Where You'll Be:
VOC's Operations "Ops" Center in Lakewood is home to a plethora of project equipment from tools to kitchen supplies.
What You'll Do:
Join us on the first weekend of Spring to get tools ready for the 2021 season! You'll spend the day with up to 10 volunteers as you help clean and organize the Ops Center and clean, sharpen, paint and repair tools. Weather permitting, many of these tasks will be able to be completed outdoors.
Why It Matters:
A well-cared-for tool is a safe tool! We were unable to host our annual OcTOOLberfest at the end of 2020, so our tools are overdue for some important TLC before being used on 2021 projects.
