Volunteering at Goldmyer
Goldmyer would not exist today without the hard work of dedicated volunteers!
There is never a shortage of projects underway at the springs and assistance is always appreciated.
A 4-visit pass is provided for attendance at a monthly work party, typically held on a Sunday.
Experience is not required and all skill levels are welcome.

Some common volunteer projects include road repair, trail work, moving rocks, facilities maintenance, construction, fund-raising, office tasks, educational programming, forest rehabilitation, supplies hauling, and more.
Voting Members
Volunteers with at least two years active working membership may become eligible for voting membership, which enables them to vote for NWWP's Board of Directors.
Board Meetings
The Northwest Wilderness Program's board of directors and volunteers meet once a month at the Seattle office. Meetings may also be attended via Zoom. Call the office for information on how to attend.
Board meetings are normally held on the first Monday of every month at 6:00 pm. In the case of holidays, the meeting usually happens the following Monday.
The annual meeting is typically held in the month of February (see calendar for exact dates).
Meetings are open to the public and we welcome your input and interest.
Discussions can include subjects ranging from maintenance projects, management concerns, policies, legal issues, as well as activity in the Middle Fork Valley and how it may impact the springs.
The nine board members include a diverse group of backgrounds and experiences to strengthen the organizations ability to balance preservation with public access at the hot springs.
Visitor feedback and involvement is always welcome.
All attendees are invited to continue discussion after the meeting while getting dinner at a nearby restaurant.
