Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Register for the next Love Your Park cleanup on GivePulse (the link is on mcmichaelpark.org/events), or email mcmichaelpark@gmail.com with questions..
What to expect
Cleanups run Saturday mornings from 10 am to noon, and the group provides the tools. The events page strongly encourages signing up ahead of time on GivePulse. Free movie nights are a looser first step: bring a blanket, and no sign-up is mentioned for them.
Tips for your first visit
- Register on GivePulse before a cleanup, since the events page strongly encourages it.
- Bring a blanket for a movie night.
- Check mcmichaelpark.org/events for the next date, since the page lists both past and upcoming events.
