Whether you are an avid hiker, mountain biker or hunter, or you simply appreciate all the Colorado outdoors has to offer, there are many ways you can get involved. Colorado state parks have a variety of employment and volunteer opportunities. Jobs include naturalists and maintenance and administrative work, and range from full to part time and temporary. Volunteer opportunities include wildlife monitoring and campground host. Check out the opportunities below for more information.
Park staff and visitors at an educational event
Every year we hire:
All temporary, YIP internship and full-time jobs are posted directly on the state's career website.
Hosts provide friendly customer service to visitors, complete daily reservation checks, sell firewood, are willing and able to clean campsites, cabins, restrooms, answer visitor questions and help run park entrance gate. Hosts reside on the park to assist with after-hour situations and report issues to rangers immediately.
Projects are open-ended and provide an opportunity for creativity and suggestions for projects and/or assignments that are outside the realm of naturalist work, maintenance details or trails crew. Assist with clerical duties in the Visitors Center and more.
Join the Timber Tigers, a dedicated bunch of volunteers who remove dead brush and trees, create mitigation lines for wildland fire prevention, and remove dead or dangerous trees as needed. Safety equipment and training are provided.
Trail Ambassadors walk, hike or bike sections of the trails within the park to greet other visitors, answer questions, remind them of safe and responsible trail etiquette, and share unique historical and natural features of the park as situations prompt.
