Auxiliary

The Auxiliary is a group of enthusiasts who support the work of the Arboretum through fundraising and volunteering. As an important part of the Arboretum community, the Auxiliary provides members with learning opportunities and social experiences to support and encourage their interests and talents. 

Auxiliary members may join craft groups to make items for sale at fundraising events (see below). There are also many opportunities to volunteer for Auxiliary events without belonging to a craft group. Members may also serve on the Auxiliary Board of Directors as officers and committee chairs and use their abilities in management, communications and finance to further benefit the Auxiliary.

How to join the Auxiliary

 Auxiliary memberships are available to existing Arboretum volunteers only. Visit the volunteer page for step-by-step instructions on becoming an Arboretum volunteer. If you are already an Arboretum volunteer, please leave Amy Sasik a message on the Auxiliary phone line at 612-625-9865 for assistance and additional information on joining the Auxiliary.
