Be the eyes and ears on the trails! The City of Fort Wayne Greenways and Trails Department is seeking Greenway Rangers specifically along along our sidepath trails.
A sidepath is a bidirectional shared use path located immediately adjacent and parallel to a roadway.
Greenway Ranger expectations:
- Patrol a designated .5-1 mile section of trail at least once per week from April through October
- Rangers are welcome to continue patrolling through the winter, but this is not required.
- Communicate any problems (graffiti, downed limbs, trail damage, etc.) immediately to the Program Manager
- Input hours spent patrolling assigned section at least once per month.
- Pick up litter and perform small-scale maintenance tasks (move small limbs, sweep rocks, etc.) as needed. If maintenance cannot be completed by ranger, Program Manager should be notified
Greenway Ranger Benefits:
- Take pride in being a key player in the safety of a trail system used and loved by Fort Wayne residents
- Enjoy connections with nature and the health benefits of activity while doing good for your community
- Be among the first to know about trail-related updates
This volunteer position is open to anyone 18 years or older. Families or individuals under 18 should contact Rick Zolman at Greenways@CityofFortWayne.org to discuss opportunities.
