Volunteers are an integral part of the park. You can work with school children, preserve the tall grass prairie, conduct water quality monitoring, research topics, assist with special events as well as light maintenance duties and clerical projects. There are many ways to participate in the volunteer program. Opportunities range from one time activities to long term projects.
