Volunteering: What to Expect

Due to the rough and steep terrain, WE REQUIRE HIKING BOOTS TO BE WORN THAT COVER THE ANKLE, and unfortunately, we will have to turn folks away without proper boots. Plan to pack layered clothing, raingear, two liters of water, lunch, sunscreen and a hat. Please clean all your gear, backpacks and boots and leave hitchhiking seeds behind to prevent the spread of weeds into the restoration site.

RSVP as soon as possible (or at least by the Thursday prior to the trip) to reserve a seat at: auwahi@yahoo.com, or at 573-8989. If you would like to bring a high-clearance 4WD vehicle, that would be greatly appreciated in that more volunteers could come, but please try to let us know early.

Please download, print, read, understand and sign these TWO liability releases: Auwahi Waiver / ʻUlupalakua Waiver and bring them with you.

Where: ʻUlupalakua Ranch Store - from central Maui, take Hana Highway (Route 36) To Haleakala Highway (Route 37). At Keokea, stay to the right and continue 5.2 miles to ʻUlupalakua (map).

Mahalo nui loa for your dedicated support and hard work. A hui hou!
