We’d love to hear from you.  If you’d like to get involved for one day or become a reoccurring volunteer, contact the Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer-info@rjrd.org, call 330-317-2597, or fill out our Volunteer Interest Form and our Volunteer Waiver and Release Form.  

Saturday Volunteer Events 
Are you interested in making a difference? Weather permitting, volunteers meet most Saturday mornings from 9:00 a.m. – noon to tackle projects that make the park a better place for all to enjoy. Weekday volunteer opportunities are also available.  Visit our calendar of events to see when the next volunteer event is taking place.  Please note, Covid protocol may require you to register in advance.

Garlic Mustard removal is the focus from April through June. Barberry removal is the focus from July through November.
