Volunteering at Access Mammoth

Access Mammoth volunteers make outdoor recreation a fun, exciting reality for kids and adults with disabilities. Teaching adaptive lessons, supporting events and fundraisers, or helping in the office, our volunteers change lives. Thank you for giving your time to our students and our mission. We welcome your participation and eagerly look forward to a fun-filled and rewarding time for all.

Adaptive Sports Lesson Volunteer Opportunities

Access Mammoth offers adaptive lessons and programs year-round. In summer, volunteers support sports like paddling, cycling, hiking, and mountain biking. In winter, instruction shifts to alpine and Nordic skiing, plus snowboarding.

Requirements include:

Must be 14+
(18+ for some training)

Background check and sport-specific training
Comfort with the activity and owning your gear when possible

Outreach & Fundraising Volunteering

Not all volunteer roles happen on the mountain. Help represent Access Mammoth at community events and fundraisers that power our mission year-round. From setting up at local festivals to cheering on cyclists or helping raise funds for adaptive athletes, your support makes a real impact — and it’s a lot of fun.

Whether you’re helping behind the scenes or out in the community, these events are a great way to get involved and make a difference.
