Electric Cart Driver - Volunteer Training

Thank you for your interest in supporting Five Rivers MetroParks as an Electric Cart Driver (TRAM/Golf Cart). Electric Cart Drivers support our agency through a variety of opportunities year-round including garden tours, special events, and weddings. Volunteer training to become a TRAM drive includes an online, virtual training as well as an in-person training with check-off. These trainings are required for all volunteers who serve as Electric Cart Drivers.  

Note: The use of agency equipment and vehicles by volunteers is at the discretion, with expressed permission, and oversight of MetroParks. Only long-term, official volunteers 18 years of age and older qualify to operate vehicles, power tools, and motorized equipment. 

DO YOU QUALIFY? To be eligible to support this opportunity, volunteers must be 18 years of age or older, complete the volunteer onboarding qualifications, and receive an eligible background check. Click here to complete your volunteer onboarding qualifications.

Step 1: Watch the Electric Cart (TRAM) Training Video*

*Please note that the trams shown in this video are our previous gas-powered trams. All of our trams have now been updated to electric models. This means that there will be some differences between what is shown in this video and how the newer electric carts will function. These differences will be covered at your in-person vehicle training and check off experience.
