Volunteer Opportunities

Looking for a way to give back to the community? We have projects for everyone!

/ Volunteer Opportunities



Want to help an organization whose community brings access to trails, programing, events and races to the Lakeland area? Helping at the park is fun and opportunities exist year round.  Looking for group/service projects? We can help set that up!

Whether you ski, hike, run, bike, race, or simply enjoy attend programs at the park, it is made possible by the legacy of volunteerism and philanthropy within the cross country skiing and Lakeland communities. Come out and become a part of the legacy. 

Most volunteer opportunities require little experience or can be learned with minimal training. Minocqua Winter Park volunteer opportunities can be personalized around your strengths and interests. Learn new skills, give back to the community, and meet fun people!
