Would you like to band raptors in the Marin Headlands, or count raptors on Hawk Hill with the GGRO? Join us at one of our volunteer recruitment meetings to get an overview of what volunteering as a GGRO hawkwatcher or bander entails. If you cannot attend, please call the office or email ggro@parksconservancy.org to request a volunteer application packet and training schedule.

Volunteer Obligations
Volunteers must be able to commit to one regular field day in the Marin Headlands every two weeks from mid-August through early December; all training is provided. Hawkwatchers must either be 18 years of age OR have an adult guardian volunteering with them; banders must be 18. There is a mandatory training for new banders all day on Saturday, August 2.

You are submitting an RSVP and will receive a reminder for:
Saturday, April 26 from 10 am–12:30 pm

If you are unable to attend this meeting after submitting an RSVP, please feel free simply to show up to one of the other two meetings: 

• Wednesday, April 23 from 7–9:30 pm >>
• Thursday, April 24 from 7–9:30 pm >>

All three meetings are identical.

These recruitment meetings will be held at the Golden Gate National Parks headquarters, Building 201 at UPPER Fort Mason, in San Francisco. Enter Upper Fort Mason at Franklin and Bay streets (not down below at Lower Fort Mason where Greens Restaurant is located). At the stop sign, Building 201 is the large white building on the left with the green roof. Enter at the side door; look for a big GGRO sign.  Parking is available; public transportation and/or biking encouraged!

For more information, call GGRO at (415) 331-0730 from 9am–5pm, Mon–Fri.
