The Friends of Fish Creek are excited to expand our existing suite of educational tours and are looking for volunteers with skills in public speaking, education and/or environmental science to act as Tour Guides.
- Volunteer Tour Guides learn about and lead tours on various fascinating topics related to the Fish Creek watershed, including the history of the park, beaver ecology, archaeology in the Fish Creek area and native and invasive plants. And possibly even ghosts! Click here to view the Tour Guide Volunteer Job Description.
- Volunteer Assistants are also needed to act in a support role to our Guides, taking on simple tasks like participant registration, drop-in payments and a bit of group management while on tours. It’s a great way to help out, get some exercise and learn about the park at the same time! Click here to view the Tour Assistant Volunteer Job Description.
