Volunteer Day (Volunteers) 

Saturday, April 20, 2019
8:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
Free

Reservations appreciated, walk-ins welcome.

 

Celebrate Earth Day by giving back. Join Audubon Community Nature Center staff and volunteers as they work on projects to maintain and improve the Nature Center building and grounds.

On Saturday morning, choose a crew to work on a specific work project. Work projects include pulling non-native plants, sprucing up the gardens, picking up trash as part of the Roadside Cleanup, and more. After all the hard work, stick around and join us for lunch (lunch is provided to all volunteers). This event happens rain or shine, so dress for the weather and bring work gloves if you have them.

Schedule:

  • 8:30 – 9:00 a.m.: Registration (Sign up ahead of time to help staff plan for the day)
  • 9:00 a.m.: Learn about the jobs available and pick a work crew.
  • 9:30 a.m. – noon: Work Projects
  • Noon – 1:00 p.m.: Lunch

*Something New! This year, Volunteer Day will run simultaneously with April’s Nature Play Day. To facilitate adult participation in Volunteer Day, parents and other caregivers can bring their kids and drop them off at the Nature Play Area 9 a.m. – noon (or the Third Floor Play Area if the weather is inclement). For this event only, adults will not have to stay with their child for Nature Play Day.

Special Information: This event takes place rain or shine. Please dress for the weather and bring work gloves if you have them. Lunch is served at noon.
