BORREGO SPRINGS — Volunteers are needed at the state's largest park, as the budget crisis has stretched resources at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.

Volunteer opportunities are available at the Park Visitor's Center in Borrego Springs.

Forty-eight hours of floor duty per year are required with a three-year commitment. A new 90-hour volunteer class will start Nov. 3. A variety of park professionals will share their expertise in class and on field trips about the park's history, biology, geology, and more.

To apply or for more information, call (760) 767-3716.
