Volunteers are critical to a successful tree climbing championship.
We cannot host this event without community support. It takes judges, technical volunteers, food runners, registration desk greeters, mulch spreaders, bag stuffers, trash managers, and a whole host of other behind-the-scenes people to make this event happen. Please consider donating a small amount of your time to help make this event successful.
