Important: Volunteer News & Updates
Volunteers, as we wind down 2024 and start preparing for 2025, it is time to update your volunteer information, review your volunteer hours, and renew your qualifications. For those of you who onboarded 3 or more years ago, this will include updating your volunteer handbook signature and your background check. But don't worry, you'll be prompted to do this when you respond to an upcoming opportunity, and if you need assistance, your volunteer services team is here to help you! Just reach out to us at volunteer.services@metroparks.org or by phone at #937-275-7275. For many of you, it will also be a time to complete your annual check offs. Your team of staff leads and volunteer coordinators will be reaching out to you soon to provide opportunities to complete check offs and help you renew your volunteer qualifications. Learn more about updating your volunteer information and renewing your qualifications in this month's Get Connected Tech Tip.

Last, we hope you are able to join us for a little volunteer appreciation at Sunset at the Market: Holiday Magic in December. Learn more about this fun holiday event under this month's Volunteer Appreciation section of the newsletter and blog. Happy Holidays to you from your Five Rivers MetroParks staff!
