Volunteering in Lakeside | Lakeside's River Park Conservancy

Volunteering at the River Park

The river park always needs volunteers for planting and trail maintenance year round. Winter and spring can be especially busy times. We welcome individuals, families, employee groups, service organizations, and Community Service volunteers.

If you would like to volunteer at the river park, please fill out and submit the General Volunteer Waiver below. For more information you can submit a message to us using the form to the right or you can email us directly at Volunteer@LakesideRiverPark.org.

At this time, we only have volunteer opportunities

Tuesday through Friday 7:00 am till 11:30 am.

Orientation & Training is done on Fridays only.

The outdoor nature of volunteering with the river park may require you to wear long pants, a long-sleeved shirt or jacket to cover your arms, close-toed shoes (boots are preferred), and a hat. Please keep this in mind when you come to volunteer with us.

Staying hydrated is extremely important, so bring plenty of water, especially during the hot months.

Once we receive your information and waiver, we will be in touch with you to schedule a time to meet and review the opportunities that will best suit your needs.

We cannot wait to meet you!
