Friends Of The Walkway Now Looking For Crew Members

This is a pretty perfect way to show your Hudson Valley pride, give back to the community, and spend some time on one of the area's most historic and well-loved sites. Friends of The Walkway at the Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park are looking for crew members to assist with a number of tasks, mostly behind the scenes.

Want To Become A Walkway Crew Member?

Now is the perfect time to think ahead to warmer months and plenty of time outdoors taking in the sights and sounds of the Hudson Valley. One of the best views around can be found at the Walkway Over The Hudson, spanning from Ulster into Dutchess County.

Registration is now open (and required) for those interested in joining the Walkway Crew team. Those interested in becoming a crew member should email volunteer@walkway.org in order to pre-register, and then plan to attend the upcoming orientation:

Walkway Crew Orientation:

• Thursday, March 12th, 2-4pm
• 80 Washington Street, Suite 300, Poughkeepsie

What Do Walkway Crew Members Do?

Mostly behind the scenes tasks, Walkway Crew Members help with things like beautifying gardens (the goats can't do all the work around here!), running errands, assisting in the office, light maintenance, assisting with events and programs; essentially, Crew Members are an extra sent of hands.

The requirement for Crew Members is 15 hours per year (minimum), and this is a volunteer opportunity. Please note that this position is different from the Walkway Ambassador program.
