Current Volunteer Opportunities
- Trail Walker Advertising Manager: We are looking for a volunteer to manage the communication between TW staff and our current advertisers, solicit new advertisers, and maintain the commitment to excellence that the Trail Walker staff has established. Interested volunteers should be comfortable working with deadlines, outgoing, personable over the phone, and patient. Previous advertising and sales experience is not necessary, but helpful. Two to three hours per month. Training will be provided as necessary.
- Web Editorial Writer: Love the region's hiking trails so much you can't stop talking about them? How about writing those thoughts down! We are currently working to redesign the Trail Conference website and will include short, informative articles about hiking in the NY-NJ area. If you would like to contribute, contact us today!
- Wanted - Photographers to Capture the Sublime, the Grit, and the Camaraderie of People Working and Walking in Nature: Looking for a creative assignment outside? Want to support the Trail Conference without getting dirty? Consider photography. The Trail Conference seeks Photos of People in Nature and Trail Volunteers at Work for use in Trail Walker, other publications, and our website. Document a day with one of our Trail Crews, a family enjoying a trail outing, friends in scenery. Artistry counts. If your photo is used, you will be given photo credit. For print purposes, digital photos must be high-resolution. When subjects are identifiable, their written permission is required.
- Web Redesign: The Trail Conference is in the beginning phases of a complete redesign of our web pages. To achieve this we need a large number of volunteers in several categories. All of these will be team members for the effort. From the description you will see that we have very ambitious goals to make us the number one site for all things hiking related in the area and perhaps the world. These positions vary from a few hours per year to whatever time you can offer. Some are short term/one time needs. Contact the volunteer coordinator or (201) 512-9348.
Web application developers especially needed: graphics designers, LAMP programmers, CMS solutions.
Meanwhile the current web needs to be maintained and these jobs will natural flow into the new ones above.
- Forum Moderators: Can you tell the difference between SPAM and hiking related questions? Are you on the web almost everyday? Moderators eliminate the SPAM and otherwise participate in the general discussions on the forum.
- Assistant Webmasters: Maintain, update, and develop selected parts of our web site. Content is king! Help increase the breadth and quality of the information on our website.
