Volunteer at the Klondike Snowmobile Association
The Klondike Snowmobile Association is a volunteer based organization, and we’re here today thanks to the hard work and dedication of our many award-winning volunteers. Our volunteers are working hard for you year round, and today is a great day for you to get involved and make a difference in your community!
Volunteering at the Klondike Snowmobile Association is a two way street. Yukoners and visitors alike can benefit from an improved multi-use trail network and more activities and resources for snowmobilers, and you can benefit from meeting new snowmobile friends, learning new skills, and knowing you made a difference!
We currently have several volunteer opportunities available. In most cases training and tools can be provided and there will be no cost to you. If you are interested in getting involved and helping out your local snowmobiling community please contact us any time via e-mail at klonsnow@gmail.com, phone us at 867 667 7680, or come to any of our monthly meetings (dates and details are on our Events page).
*Although we appreciate enthusiasm, please contact us before partaking in any trail work so we can provide some guidance on applicable rules, regulations and standards that will prevent you and us from getting into trouble.*
Volunteer Positions Currently Available
Summer Trail Workers Wanted
Several of the multi-use trails in the Whitehorse area have become overgrown and are in need of some brush clearing and signage updating. We will be heading out several times over the summer, and the dates and locations will be posted on our Events page. Any and all volunteers are welcome to come on out to our trail work events.
Volunteer positions include: chain saw operator, brush saw operator, hand tool operators, and general labour / swamper positions. All necessary tools will be provided and there will be no cost to any volunteers other than getting yourself to the work sites.
Event Organizers Wanted
Do you have an idea for a snowmobile event? Make it a K.S.A. group ride! We are always looking for people to organize some snowmobile events or group rides over the winter. As a volunteer event organizer your duties would include planning the date and time, selecting a starting location and route, and leading the way on the day of the ride. We can handle the rest for you and help cover any costs. If you are interested please let us know at klonsnow@gmail.com or phone 867 667 7680.
Trails Page Writers Wanted
On our website we’ve created a Yukon Trails page, featuring some basic information about the routing and the history behind various multi-use trails around the Yukon. We would like to expand this page to include more trails, so if you are interested in doing a short write up about your favourite trail please do so and send it in to klonsnow@gmail.com!
