Job Description
FROM: https://www.volunteer.gov/s/volunteer-opportunity/a09SJ00000Ppb0j
ADDRESS: 643 Wildlife Road Dover, Tennessee, 37058
DATES: 11/2/2026 – 2/28/2027
DEPT: Fish & Wildlife Service
JOB DESCRIPTION:
Cross Creeks National Wildlife Refuge is 9,000 acres of land that is actively managed to create and maintain optimal wildlife habitat, which makes it a very attractive location for a diversity of wildlife as well as visitors. This refuge is a wonderful location for fishing, kayaking, wildlife observation and photography, as any local would tell you. If you enjoy meeting new people, advocating for conservation and teaching visitors about this unique location, this opportunity may be a great fit for you. We also seek someone with interest and/or experience in mechanics, fabrication, building trades to assist our Engineering/Equipment Operator with a variety of maintenance and repair activities. Despite being a smaller scale refuge, there is no shortage of maintenance tasks or field work projects so if you enjoy hands-on work, consider volunteering with us this season. Couples and singles are encouraged to apply.
We ask that volunteer campers work 24 hours per week. In exchange for providing us with your time and service, the refuge will provide volunteers with a covered, full hookup camper pad, a free laundry facility located adjacent to the camper pad, propane, a work vehicle and any personal protection equipment needed. You would not necessarily have to work this whole period, but can come for segments of this duration. Exact start date and duration are flexible.
