Publish, sell and distribute information, publications and programmes promoting the objectives of the Society

Increase awareness, public understanding and support for the natural and cultural features of the Tongariro National Park and the Society's aims and objectives.
Maintain a programme of field activities for Society members to offer opportunities to explore Tongariro National Park, share ideas, network, see progress or results of our work, offer suggestions to the executive and staff and generally "keep in touch".

Tongariro Natural History Society, New Zealand Volunteer Information
Being a long term volunteer with TNHS enables you to get involved with a variety of different activities. Apart from your main project you also get involved with the regular member activities of the society such as broom pulling, seedling collections and planting. This is always a good opportunity to interact with the members and update them on what it is you are doing and how things are going with the long term projects.
