2018 Volunteer Training and Call for New Volunteers

With summer just around the corner, the PISCATAQUA is gearing up for its 7th sailing season and we are getting ready with our spring volunteer training.  This season we are also looking for volunteers to help onboard PISACATQUA as deckhands, work with youth during our education programs, take part in citizen science projects around our watershed, lend a hand with boat maintenance projects, and act as interpreters in our new exhibit.   We will also be announcing our dates for spring training for citizen science monitoring program shortly so stay tuned.

We are also accepting applications for high school students interested in becoming an apprentice or camp counselor-in-training.  Trainings are coming up at the end of April, you can learn more at gundalow.org or email Gretchen at education@gundalow.org.

The Gundalow Company operates the vessel, PISCATAQUA and is committed to preserving the maritime heritage and marine environments of the Piscataqua Region through education and action. Each year PISCATAQUA takes over 8,000 students and adults out on the water to experience our rivers and waterfront, and we couldn’t do it without a dedicated group of community volunteers.
