TEAM BUILDING FOR COMMUNITY IMPACT
Help us empower our next generation of socially and culturally diverse community stewards through volunteer and internship experiences. Engaging young people in service is a critical pathway for youth to
connect with, learn about, and care for their parks, their community, and the environ-ment around them—while building skills, knowledge, perspective, and leadership.
CONNECT YOUR TEAM Inspire Youth LEADERSPark volunteer projects are the ultimate
teamwork experience—working together outside of the office, undertaking group projects in the outdoors, learning and
applying new skills, and having a fun day in the park amid spectacular settings. You will have an unforgettable team-building outing that will result in returns for your work, your
park, and your community.
Grow your ParkIn just a few hours, your team will make
a difference for our parks and our community! They will join our dedicated
community of 25,000 volunteers that we depend on every year to care for the
parks’ vast array of resources—trails, landscapes, habitats, wildlife, native plant
nurseries, historic sites, beaches, youth and public programs, and much more.
