Volunteer Appreciation

April is National Volunteer Month and we're celebrating all of our dedicated volunteers! You can read about the many ways volunteers supported our parks and made a difference in 2025 in this year's Volunteer Impact Report.

Additionally, we are mailing thank you cards to those dedicated volunteers who served 10 or more hours with us in 2025. Those with 25 hours or more will also receive a personalized note from their staff lead in each thank you card AND their 2026 volunteer discount card, good for 15%, 30%, or 50% of MetroParks programs and routine rentals all year long.

You'll also see a variety of posts across MetroParks social media and on the website recognizing the incredible work you, our dedicated volunteers do!

For those volunteers celebrating Earth Day with us on Saturday, April 25th at Adopt-A-Park, we'll be giving away our brand-new collectable Adopt-A-Park pins.

Last, don't forget to request your VIP items, you've earned them! Volunteer shirts, hats, milestone service pins, and more are available by request in our VIP Item Request Form here on Get Connected, or by contacting Volunteer Services.

Thank you for continuing to lend a hand in support of your MetroParks. We appreciate YOU!

Thank you for volunteering!
