Shorebird Volunteer Form

This page is a volunteer registration form for those interested in volunteering to help with the spring field season of the Delaware Shorebird Project.

All volunteers must certify that they are fully COVID-19 vaccinated or request an exemption from the COVID-19 vaccination(s) due to qualified ADA or sincerely held religious beliefs or practices. All Delaware DPH and CDC guidance will be followed (masks may be required based on guidance during May 2023).

Participants must be at least 18 years of age to volunteer with the Shorebird Project.

Commitment

Volunteers should plan on committing to spending at least three days with the project to offset training, and to gain exposure to all aspects of the work of the Project.

Training

Training will be provided virtually. New volunteers will be paired with a DNREC staff member or an experienced volunteer.

The number of new volunteers will be limited in proportion to experienced team members to ensure bird safety and provide effective training.

Please Note: We are unable to provide housing or vehicles due to public health concerns.

Our priority is our volunteers’ safety and minimizing the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
