The Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge is currently seeking volunteers to assist visitors and staff.

Primary duties include greeting visitors and providing information about the refuge’s trails and wildlife. Additional opportunities include wildlife surveys, invasive species mitigation, habitat restoration, maintenance, beach clean-up and administration.

Refuge staff will host the annual New Volunteer Training from 8 a.m.-noon Friday, April 6, (lunch provided 12:15-1 p.m.) at the Sequim Prairie Grange Hall, 290 MacLeay Road, just west of Sequim.

In addition, the refuge will hold its annual refresher for current volunteers from 1-3:30 pm.

New volunteer training is offered only once each year and is a requirement for volunteering at the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge.
