Volunteer check-in: confirm your spot first
Please don't head to a cleanup site until a Chamber coordinator has confirmed your spot. Once you're approved, we'll text or call you with the address, check-in time and site lead. Bring water, sturdy closed-toe boots, work gloves and a mask. Read the Volunteer Safety page before you go. Never enter a building that smells of gas or still has power on, and treat all floodwater and mud as contaminated. Questions? Call (970) 398-5300 (Mon–Fri, 8 am – 4 pm) or email events@pagosachamber.com.
