National Public Lands Day Lend a helping hand for America at the nation's largest hands-on volunteer effort, now celebrating its 20th year, to improve and enhance the nation's 600 million acres of public lands. National Public Lands Day keeps the promise of the Civilian Conservation Corps, the "tree army" that worked from 1933-1942 to preserve and protect America's natural heritage. Join park staff, partners, and your neighbors on this day set aside each year to educate and engage the public in caring for their beloved public lands. Work projects, guided nature hikes and educational activities for all ages plus visit the Environmental Expo where you can learn more on protecting and exploring our natural resources. Event details coming soon, sign up as a volunteer today! To learn more and to sign up as a volunteer, contact:
