Happy Cleanup Volunteers!

Park cleanups help beautify our community green spaces, keep litter out of our streams, and protect wildlife. Join us at one of our many cleanups throughout the year. Staff or trained volunteers will lead you to the trash, and provide you with gloves and trash bags too! Cleanups are pre-approved for Montgomery County Public School's Student Service Learning (SSL) hours. Forms will be provided at the cleanup.

A few requirements:

  • Children under 14 years old must volunteer with a parent/guardian.
  • Students must pre-register to receive SSL hours. Do not use your school email (it does not allow outsiders to contact you).
  • Dress appropriately, including close toed shoes, long pants and long sleeves. Bring water and snacks.
  • This opportunity is not eligible for court-ordered service.

For questions contact: volunteercleanups@montgomeryparks.org

Volunteers must register on the Park's website - a link will be provided after you respond to this opportunity.
