Snow Host volunteers are helping people have a fun and safe snow play experience at Mt Charleston this year. If you enjoy helping others and having fun in the snow, the U.S. Forest has a great volunteer opportunity for you. The U.S. Forest Service is looking for volunteers to be Snow Play Hosts this winter in the Mt. Charleston area of the Spring Mountains National Recreation Area. Every weekend in the winter, hundreds of people flock to the mountains to play in the snow. Many times they don’t know where to go, what they can do, and how to be safe. Snow Play Hosts provide roadside information about snow play opportunities, take part in the fun, and engage visitors at snow play sites. Snow Play Hosts will also help visitors have a fun snow play experience while reducing impacts to the Forest. Typical duties will include promoting safe snow play practices, engaging visitors in creative snow play activities, and providing visitor information at roadside stations. Experience volunteering in a similar setting is a plus, but not required. Volunteers should be at least 18 years old and able to work outdoors in cold conditions. Snow Play Hosts work on weekends and holidays. Average shifts range between three-to-six hours. Minimum commitment desired is two shifts per month. We happily welcome volunteers to contribute hours beyond the minimum. Volunteers are needed now through the end of March.
