Volunteer Opportunities

Andover Trails is run and staffed by volunteers. We encourage everyone who enjoys the town’s outdoor recreational resources to take responsibility to care for them. You can do this by picking up litter as you walk, removing downed branches or other light obstacles from the path, and reporting vandalism, large downed trees or other significant problems.
 

AVIS properties are maintained by a system of Wardens and a Land Management Committee. To volunteer on an AVIS property, please see http://avisandover.org/wardens.html
 

Town Conservation properties are managed by the town’s Conservation Commission and a team of Overseers.  See https://andoverma.gov/159/Conservation-Commission for more information.

Significant maintenance issues on Conservation properties may be reported to Bob Decelle, Special Projects Manager, at rhdecelle@gmail.com.

To apply to become a Conservation Overseer: click here for a mail-in application.


Problems with the Bay Circuit Trail, including missing or damaged trail signs may be reported to jcairns412@gmail.com

To help with Shawsheen Greenway clearing projects, the “Paddle Your Shawsheen” canoe and kayak rental program, or other events focusing on the Shawsheen River, email shawsheengreenway@gmail.com


To help organize the 2022 Andover Scramble, the Bay Circuit Traverse, or maintenance of the marked 10 mile or 25 mile bike routes, please email 
shawsheengreenway@gmail.com
