Outings Leader Volunteer Opportunities!
Outings are crucial to Sierra Club Loxahatchee Group. We use them to expose folks to the outdoors. We use them to invite folks to get together and enjoy each other’s company. We use them to educate. We use them to show what Sierra Club does. And we use them to have fun.
To have a successful outings program we need outing leaders, and that’s where you can help us. Even something as simple as a walk in a park can be a Sierra Club outing. A two-hour bike ride on your favorite trail can easily be turned into a Sierra Club outing. If there is something you like to do outdoors and you want some great company along make it an outing!
Becoming an outing leader requires a bit of training and will include doing your first trips under the supervision of an experienced leader. Sierra Club will help you every step of the way. The number of outings you lead and the places you go are totally up to you.
This volunteer opportunity is a fun way to meet new people, share your love and knowledge of Florida's many habitats and advance the Club's motto: To explore, enjoy, and protect the wild places of the earth.
If you are at all interested please have a chat with one of our active outings leaders, Ron Haines [email protected] or Lisa Hanley [email protected]. One of them will be happy to answer any questions you have.

This is not an event. This is a notice that the Loxahatchee Group needs a newsletter editor volunteer. Please read it through.

Volunteer Opportunity: Newsletter Editor needed!

The Sierra Club Loxahatchee Group needs an editor to join the Turtle Tracks Newsletter Team.
Our newsletter, Turtle Tracks, is a monthly, emailed publication. The newsletter editing team collects articles and photos, edits and sends them to the newsletter editor. The newsletter editor formats them into an email using a software called Marketing Cloud.
The newsletter editing team needs a volunteer to convert these articles and photos into the Marketing Cloud email. This volunteer will be trained in the use of the Marketing Cloud software through the National Sierra Club digital staff and guided along the way by an already-experienced member of our newsletter team.
Training is estimated to take four to five hours, all online and mostly at your own speed. Once trained, the time commitment would at first be about six hours toward the end of each month. The time spent on each issue will decrease significantly with practice.
This position does not require writing or editing. The volunteer simply uses the edited material from the other team members and plugs it into the newsletter format. Computer experience is necessary and layout skills a plus. Experience with Marketing Cloud or other composition software would be very valuable.
This is a vital role in the functioning of the Group.
If you are at all interested or have any questions, please contact the person presently doing the job, Ron Haines [email protected].
