Oahu Group Service Projects provide an excellent opportunity for environmental volunteers to experience unique places that are often closed to the public. To apply for any Oahu Group Service Project, mail a $25 (per person) deposit check, payable to the leader listed first in the schedule, together with your mailing address, phone number and e-mail address. Reservations cannot be made by phone or e-mail. Trip fees are estimated to range from about $225.00 to $250.00 and will cover the cost of round trip airfare, ground transportation, meals and a portion of the leaders' expenses. Should Inter-Island airfares increase substantially, the cost may also increase. It is important to make your deposit early, as many trips fill quickly. On a service project, we normally work for the preserve for two days and have one day free for hiking or other recreational activities. The participants will share in the preparation of meals and clean up. Participants will live together in facilities that are probably more cramped and rustic than they are used to. Therefore, it is important that the participants have a positive and cooperative attitude and willingness for teamwork. All trip participants are subject to approval by the leaders based upon the participant's experience, disposition, and physical condition. Deposits will be returned to any participants who are not accepted. Where there are a large number of applicants, the leaders will have the option to give preference to current Sierra Club members and Oahu residents. You are always welcome to contact the leaders for more information.
