Blue Ridge Parkway
Volunteer
 

Many people ask "How can I help take care of the Parkway?" One of the primary ways is by becoming a V.I.P. or Volunteer in the Park. Throughout the National Park System, volunteers bring their specialized or routine skills to assist in a variety of projects.  We'd love to have you as our volunteer!

The Friends of the Blue Ridge Parkway is a membership organization founded in 1989 and currently having over 5,000 members. The Friends' primary mission is to mobilize and provide leadership for volunteers who assist with a wide variety of Parkway projects. 

Contact The Friends of the Blue Ridge Parkway today to find out more about how to be involved with projects that fit your schedule and your set of skills.

Did You Know?
There are twenty six tunnels on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but only one in Virginia. This is primarily because the North Carolina mountains are more rugged than those in Virginia.
