Basic first aid and CPR are required\, and training can be provided by the Forest Service if needed. \nIf you are not already a member of the Dolly Sods Wilderness Stewards\, please sign-up by submitting this form. \nFor more information and to register for the training\, please email dollysodsstewards@gmail.com \nThe Dolly Sods Wilderness Stewards program was formed in partnership with the Monongahela National Forest to allow for volunteer action to supplement the Forest Service’s wilderness management activities\, engage in visitor education and support the long-term health of the wilderness.
