Volunteer

The Ohio Geological Society is administered by the elected Board of Directors and the Trustees. The Society, however, depends on member and non-member volunteers to assist with a host of duties, before, during, and after an event. Without volunteers, many of the educational and fun events held throughout the year simply would not happen.
All members are encouraged to take an active role by volunteering to help at any event. Contact the Society Secretary, Amy Lang, or any OGS officer to sign up.
