Please join us to help clean up Fairmount Park!
RSVPs are due THIS SUNDAY, May 13!!!
Fairmount Park is Philadelphia's backyard. As the city's largest playground and classroom, Fairmount Park offers something for all. Whether you rollerblade on Kelly Drive or stroll along the Manayunk Canal, please come out and give back to the park that has given us all so much. We need you to help get the park ready for the busy summer season.
In partnership with Philadelphia Cares and The Fairmount Park Commission, volunteers from the
Philadelphia Big Ten Alumni Clubs will help with restoration, trail work, tree planting, and invasive vine removal at Morris Park, 68th and Oxford in West Philly. This event goes on RAIN OR SHINE, so be sure to wear comfortable clothing that you don't mind getting dirty. Be sure to show your school spirit and wear your colors!
We hope you can join us for this fantastic event giving back to our community. Please click on the link below to sign up for our team of volunteers!
