Volunteer Appreciation: Summer Care Campaign

Our volunteers make every season brighter, but there's no doubt that summer volunteering takes a little extra grit. Whether you're caring for gardens, supporting programs, maintaining trails, providing animal care, or welcoming visitors, your time and dedication help make Five Rivers MetroParks a special place for our community.

As a small thank you for all you do, be sure to cool off with a frozen fruit popsicle after your next volunteer shift. Popsicles are available for volunteers at all MetroParks locations with scheduled volunteer opportunities through September to help you beat the heat and stay refreshed while serving with us this summer. Ask your staff lead where to find yours at your next opportunity.

Thank you for sharing your time, energy, and passion to connect people with nature. We appreciate you and hope you'll enjoy this sweet treat. Thank you for supporting your MetroParks this summer!

Don't forget to request your VIP items - milestone service pins and apparel! If you've served 25 hours or more, you qualify! Click here to learn more and request your items today. Or reach out to volunteer.services@metroparks.org for more information and assistance.

Thank You for Volunteering!
