About the Volunteer Experience 
All volunteer positions are designed for professionals with busy lives. Committee members and 
co-chairs make a 1-year commitment. This role has low activity between May – August; however, 
during peak season (September -April) this role requires a commitment of 5–10 hours per month, 
varying seasonally with trip review cycles. Committee meetings take place outside of normal 
business hours and can typically be accessed by conference call if necessary. All volunteers have 
the opportunity to be core to our decision-making process.
