Monthly Volunteer Day at Sam’s Point


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 08/15/2021
We will do a little much-needed maintenance around the Park Preserve, including on some less-used trails. You can learn how to crush rocks with ease, swing a pickaxe like a pro, and move heavy boulders with nothing but your brain and a lever.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
