Your contribution of time and energy helps us to protect the magnificent natural and cultural resources of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Opportunities for individual volunteers are available year-round, with the greatest need for volunteers in the summer high season. Volunteers help with visitor center and campground operations, assist in the management of invasive vegetation, support the operations of the native plant nursery, provide administrative support in offices and perform a variety of other tasks. Recurring Volunteer PositionsCampground HostsCampground hosts assist visitors with campground operations while stationed at various campgrounds in the park. Volunteers may register campers and help them find campsites, walk campground loops to inform and educate visitors, provide information about the park, work with Park Service employees in handling campground money and perform minor maintenance. Campground host positions are removed from the volunteer opportunity listings at www.volunteer.gov once they are filled for the season.
