Volunteer as a Friends Member:

If you're not a Friends Member, but would like to volunteer . . .

"The heart of Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park is our employees; the soul of our Park is our volunteers."

Volunteers are involved in all aspects of the Homosassa operation; without them we could not provide such a high level of service to our visitors.

Welcome to Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park, one of the most unusual places in the Florida Park Service! The volunteer program at Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park provides the community with an opportunity to give something to the Park, while providing a much-needed work force to enhance overall Park operations. Our program has grown into one of the largest volunteer programs in the Florida Park Service. Volunteers provide over 5,000 hours of service monthly and are equivalent to 29 full-time employees.

The Park has seen many changes over the years. As we grow, we will continue to experience a dynamic Park operation. Expect change and embrace it as an opportunity to improve how we do business. We need your help to make Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park the best it can be.

If you have ever thought about volunteering, now is the time to think of joining. The process is simple.

  1. Fill out an on-line Membership Application Form
  2. Attend a behind-the-scenes tour (2.5 hours offered one time per month) that explains all aspects of our program.
  3. Begin on-the-job training with your new Park family.
