  • Love a Park Day at Frisinger Park – Thursday, June 20
    • Join us at a gardening workday at Frisinger Park. This park features beautiful garden beds at the park’s entrance that need some care. This workday may involve weeding, planting, and mulching in the gardens.
  • Love the River Day at Argo Livery – Friday, June 21
    • Join us for a volunteer day on the water! This is a rare river cleanup day in which we invite individuals and small groups to come clean up on the water. Volunteers will be paired in canoes or kayaks, picking up litter on the river around Argo Livery. This is a low current area that is perfect for beginning paddlers, and fun for experienced ones too.

Don’t hesitate to reach out to volunteer@a2gov.org with any questions about volunteer opportunities in the parks.
