You can help protect and enhance the Oregon hiking experience by serving on the board of directors of the Trailkeepers of Oregon (TKO) or taking on a project-based volunteer opportunity.
TKO is an all-volunteer non-profit organization dedicated to trail stewardship, trail advocacy and hosting the Oregon Hikers’ community forum.
We are a working board; as such, board members and other volunteers play a critical role in shaping the organization’s strategic direction and programs.
We are looking for board members or project-based volunteers to focus on several key areas in 2016 as we move forward with our new TKO strategic plan, including:
* board secretary
* membership coordinator
* volunteer coordinator for TKO stewardship projects
* social media coordinator
* web design and content
* grant writing

Mission Statement
Inspiring action for the protection and enhancement of the Oregon hiking experience through advocacy, stewardship, education and outreach.
Description
Our organization was born out of the Portland Hikers Forum, a community forum for hiking enthusiasts that was established in 2006, and has now grown to become the Oregon Hikers Forum, TKO’s free, online community for hikers. As the original forum grew, a user-built field guide was created and has now grown to become the Oregon Hikers Field Guide, a free online resource hosted by TKO and maintained by dozens of volunteer authors.
Early on, the many volunteers behind the original hiking forum and field guide saw that many of our trails are at risk and in need of active champions and engaged stewards to advocate for them: TKO was formed by the forum community in the fall of 2007 to address these concerns. The heart of TKO’s mission is our effort to build, restore and maintain hiking trails across the state, promote hikers' interests, and foster ownership and conservation of our public lands.
