Volunteer opportunities are varied and appeal to a large range of interests. Positions available include:
- Tour guide: Archaeology/culture, astronomy, geology, birding; Plaza and Mesa.
- Hosts; retail (gift shop); education – school week and youth workshops.
- Maintenance; life at Chimney Rock; lecture series; and others.
Anyone can be a volunteer.
CRIA offers volunteer orientation on May 2 and 3 and throughout the season by working with ad hoc mentors. Volunteers can volunteer as often as they like. Volunteers can set their own schedule at the beginning of each year and pick up other opportunities later in the season.
