Philly ICO Outings Volunteer

Sign up for an outing planned by Philly ICO Certified Leaders. Get Sierra Club background screening completed before your first outing. You will be responsible for hiking with the group for the duration of the trip. You might also volunteer to help scout the location, pack or clean gear, help shop and pack food, pickup gear or return gear.

Certified Outings Leader

Certified Leaders plan, organize and lead hiking, paddling, backpacking, and car camping outings, with the help of other ICO volunteers and in partnership with one of our partner agencies. Certified Leaders plan the trip itinerary, plan meals, reserve vans, and manage the gear needed for each outing. Certified Leaders are also responsible for submitting trip participant reports and expense reports for each outing.

Administrative Volunteer

In addition to outings, volunteers are needed to help with administrative tasks. Assistance needed may include volunteer recruiting, planning volunteer events, maintaining gear, updating social media, taking and posting meeting minutes, editing trip photos, maintaining the trip calendar, signing up outing volunteers.
