How to become a U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Volunteer on Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge/Battle of Midway National Memorial:
There are currently two types of volunteer opportunities being offered. Both types are very competitive and require significant contributions of time. The annual albatross count in December of every year usually requires one to pay for the airfare to Midway Atoll via a contracted flight service on a nine passenger plane. However, all who are able to go say it’s an incredible life-changing experience.
