Do you enjoy walking? Help promote the MetroParks while getting your daily exercise! Volunteers will be assigned a walking route of approved Downtown Dayton Businesses to deliver RiverScape events posters and promotional materials. Volunteers must schedule a time to pick up materials from the MetroParks main office, but the deliveries can take place any time during the dates of July 10 through July 21, noting that many of the businesses will not open until 11:00 am.
Impact
Ambassador volunteers offer excellent customer service and help build awareness of all the amenities that MetroParks offers to community members.
