Calling all volunteers! Sinnemahoning State Park is looking for volunteers to staff wildlife watching stations in the park. This public program, called “Elk Watch” will be held on Friday and Saturday evenings during the elk rut in September and October.
Volunteers provide information about Pennsylvania’s elk herd, help visitors learn to view wildlife in a safe and respectful manner, and have a lot of fun in the process. Sign up for one evening, a weekend, or several weekends.
No experience necessary – we will train you!
If you are interested, please plan to attend the Elk Watch Volunteer Training on Saturday, September 13th, from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm. This training will cover the basics of elk biology, antler growth, and elk behavior during mating season. We will also discuss how to set up an Elk Watch station, go over the materials that will be used, and answer any questions you have.
Please pre-register for this training by phone, email or the DCNR event calendar. If you are interested in being an Elk Watch Volunteer, but are unable to attend the training, please contact Kim at 814-647-8401 ext. 106.
