Volunteers can help cut trees, clean and paint restrooms, pick up trash, clean grills, and paint and repair picnic tables. Lunch will be served, and the day will conclude by 4:00 p.m., or at the volunteers’ discretion. No park entry permit is required for volunteers that day.
Anyone who wants to volunteer at Verdon Lake on may 4th should pre-register by May 1st. Volunteers under age 19 need parental permission, and the range of projects for those volunteers will be limited.
