Storm Cleanup

Our cemeteries, parks, and trails have been impacted by recent storms. We need your help restoring their natural beauty and ensure they are safe for everyone to enjoy. As a Storm Recovery Volunteer, you will play a crucial role as part of our disaster response. Help us with general cleanup efforts, such as cleaning up debris, small limbs, and other storm-related damage. Your efforts will directly contribute to reopening our cemeteries, parks, and trails and making them safe and accessible for the community.

No prior experience is necessary. All tools, supplies, training, and maps are provided.
