As a fish and wildlife volunteer host, you will be joining other RV owners from across the nation who live and work for a month or more at one of our state hatcheries, wildlife areas or offices.
You can use your skills and experience to help Oregon's fish and wildlife. It is a great opportunity to try new things, meet new people, and have fun!
There are 46 sites throughout the state to choose from
- ODFW's goal is to match you to a site that suits your interests, abilities and skills.
- Most of ODFW's sites provide full hook-up, are quiet, peaceful and are located close to recreational opportunities.
- Volunteer hosts typically stay a month or longer at a site, volunteering an average of 20 hours per week.
