Do you love the outdoors? Are you interested in a job that helps New Mexico and yourself? Register today for this free event to learn about how you can be part of the growing restoration economy in New Mexico!
From mapping technicians to fire crew members, local partners need people with little to no experience who want to contribute to healthy forests, waters and communities.
Bring your resume and join us at Bataan Hall to learn about current job and training opportunities, and talk with people in the business of helping nature and people.
Special thanks to Taos Ski Valley Foundation for sponsoring this event.
