Take Pride in America Day is a day for people to get outside and contribute their time and energy to making a difference in our state parks and wildlife areas.  It is a national partnership established by U.S. Department of the Interior to encourage and empower volunteers to improve our parks, lakes, wildlife areas, cultural and historic sites.

Anyone can volunteer and pitch in on Take Pride in America Day.  Volunteers under the age of 18 must have parental permission, and the range of volunteer projects will be limited.

Take Pride Day is designed for individuals who wish to make a one-time contribution to our parks system and for groups such as service clubs and youth organizations to play a valuable proprietorship role in parks in their areas.

Volunteers may arrive later and leave at their own discretion.  Activities include picking up sticks, trash and general clean up. A noon meal will be provided. Please bring work gloves and dress appropriately for the weather.
