Does the DOW need volunteers to help with the feeding effort?
Yes, we’ll need lots of help. The DOW is especially in need of volunteers who can provide snowmobiles, sno-cats, trailers and reliable four-wheel drive vehicles that are good in snowy conditions. Volunteers who can snowshoe or cross-country ski into sites are also needed. Volunteers should be able to spend several days on the project. Out-of-area volunteers are encouraged to commit to a five-day stay. Single-day assistance is discouraged because of required training time. We also need people with flexible schedules who can work some weekdays. For liability reasons, you must fill out a DOW volunteer application form in order to volunteer for any project. That form can be found at the DOW web site: http://wildlife.state.co.us/Volunteer. Look for the “Volunteer Application” link in the middle of the page. The forms should be printed out and faxed to (970)641-7883. Applications can also be mailed, through Jan. 25, to: Jennifer Kleffner, Colorado Division of Wildlife, 300 New York Ave., Gun
