National Volunteer Month is an opportunity to say thank you to our volunteers at Gulf Island and all the volunteers nationwide who enhance your visit to national parks. The possibilities are as diverse as the national parks themselves. Examples of volunteer activities in Gulf Islands National Seashore:

• Kayak Guide

• Ambassador

• Campground host

• Maintenance host

• Traffic Control

• Sea Turtle Monitoring

• Guest Services

• Photographer

All volunteer positions nationwide are advertised on www.volunteer.gov If you are interested in learning about volunteer programs in National Parks visit www.nps.gov/subjects/volunteer/index.htm If you are a volunteer and want to share your story, join the #WhyWeServe campaign.
