Keep Coyote Creek Beautiful works with partners and volunteers. We have openings at times for various positions. Please see below for opportunities to join our team.

Volunteer Roles

Creek Cleanup Team Leaders

One of our most frequent activities is creek and trail cleanups. We are looking for volunteers to be Action Team Leaders, who can demonstrate leadership qualities to lead a team of 15 people of varying ages using our safety protocols to conduct a cleanup. Our events usually have 3-5 team leaders who work in a section of the trail or creek. As a team leader, you ensure that your group safely removes trash while avoiding poison oak and keeping good footing.
