Thank you for reserving an Adopt-A-Park Service Kit!
Your volunteer service helps protect our region’s natural heritage and keeps our parks and river corridors healthy and beautiful.
To receive your kit, you must RSVP for a Drive-Thru Adopt-A-Park Service Kit Pick-up. Kits will be available for pick-up in the morning at Cox Arboretum and Wegerzyn Gardens MetroPark on Saturday, April 25.
How to Participate
- Complete your litter pick-up using your service kit in a park or green space of your choice
- Follow the instructions included in your kit for safety and disposal guidance
- After your cleanup, log your volunteer hours and share your impact
Important Timing
Service kits are intended to be used during April and May as part of our Adopt-A-Park efforts. Cleanups completed outside of this timeframe will not be eligible for volunteer hour tracking in Get Connected.

You may clean up any green space of your choosing, or use the list provided in your kit to find high-priority areas within MetroParks.
Trash Disposal:
Please take your bagged trash with you or place it in the nearest park trash receptacle if working outside of a Five Rivers MetroPark.
Log Your Impact:
After your cleanup, please:
- Log your volunteer hours in Get Connected. Watch this video for instructions on how to add your team's hours.
- Complete the short impact survey to share how much litter you collected. Your response helps track our collective efforts and make a bigger difference.
