Pick Up the Parks

Pick Up the Parks will take place at various Parks across Demo County on December 1st, 2021 from 9:00 am-12:00 pm.

We ask volunteers to arrive at 8:30 am to get signed in and complete safety waivers.

What Is Pick Up The Parks?
Pick Up the Parks is an Annual County program that engages the community to help clean up the winter trash and debris accumulation.

It helps reduce the amount of litter entering our waterways.

It helps the parks get a jump start for looking great for the spring and summer months.

What Can I Expect?
You should arrive at 8:30 am and check in with our site host for the location you choose. Each location has a max attendance we are aiming to hit. At 9:00 am your site host will introduce themselves and begin distributing jobs and locations in the park they would like you to focus on. The jobs you can be expected to perform are trash and litter pick up, raking sticks or leaves, picking up large rocks, sweeping out shelters or lodges, and in some locations weeding and mulching are needs.

Meet-Up Locations
Park Locations without lodges or shelters will meet at a central location for the sign-in. If registration for locations is low, volunteers will be asked to change to a different location. Meeting locations will be provided to you by the site host.
