Darke County
Parks Volunteer Open House
Start the new year off right by signing up as a volunteer with Darke
County Parks! Park staff will be hosting a Volunteer Open House on
Saturday, Jan. 14th at 2pm at Shawnee Prairie Nature Center. The open
house will feature an overview of the volunteer program, special
events, programing, and regular operations. Veteran volunteers will be
present to discuss their favorite aspect of volunteering, and Volunteer
Coordinator, Kathi McQueen will guide new volunteers to their best fit
in the parks.
Volunteering with Darke County Parks is so much more than helping with
Prairie Days or summer camps. Everyone has their own particular talent,
and that talent has a place with the parks. From school field trips to
“Naturalist in the Classroom,” habitat healing to staffing the
reception desk, animal care to “Adopt a Park,” and so much more, there
is a place for everyone within the volunteer program.
If the open house date doesn’t work for you, but you’d still like to
volunteer, feel free to contact the Darke County Parks Office for more
information. Volunteer Coordinator, Kathi McQueen can be reached at the
Darke County Parks’ Nature Center at (937) 548-0165 during normal
business hours, or feel free to email her at
kmcqueen@darkecountyparks.org.
