Adopt-a-Park
The Adopt-a-Park program provides opportunities for groups and
individuals to help improve and maintain the King County Park
System's 200 parks and 200 miles of regional trails. You or your
group can adopt a park or a portion of a trail by volunteering
there at least four times over a 12 month period. Interested in
adopting a local park? Call the Park System volunteer coordinator
at (206) 296-2990 to sign-up.
Senior
Park Ambassadors Needed!
Are you an adult looking for an opportunity to participate in the
parks? Volunteer Park Ambassadors are needed to share the history
of the parks, teach an appreciation of the natural environment, and
serve as a resource for park visitors. Volunteers will work closely
with park staff. Training is provided on a wide-range of issues
from plant and bird identification to parks history and highlights.
For more information, contact Greg Coy at (206) 205-8765 or
greg.coy@metrokc.gov.
