Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Email powersparkconservancy@gmail.com and ask whether the group has current work days or events. Its Facebook page is the other listed contact..
What to expect
In 2018 the group joined the city's Love Your Park service day, a short 10 to 11 am shift. Volunteers painted furniture and trash cans and planted bulbs. Current volunteer times could not be confirmed, so ask the group before you plan a visit.
Newcomer welcome
Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: Past volunteer days were open to volunteers who registered online, but no current way to join was found, and the page that describes the group does not say how to become a member..
