Enjoy a morning making a difference in the park. Our weekly maintenance days tackle a host of jobs large and small, so there’s something for everyone. You don’t need to be a weightlifter or a construction worker to help out, in fact we’ve got men and women of all shapes, sizes, ages, and abilities volunteering at the park. But there are things that our volunteers have in common: a willingness to pitch in and work together, a healthy sense of humor, and desire to help the park.

Whether you’re a newbie or experienced, pitch in to keep the park safe and beautiful. There’s no long-term commitment required—but we hope you come again.

Meet promptly at 9 a.m. in the maintenance area next to China Camp Ranger Station (101 Peacock Gap Trail, San Rafael). Bring work gloves and a filled water bottle. Wear long pants, long-sleeve shirt, and sturdy hiking shoes or boots. Sunglasses or other eye protection are recommended. Please leave your four-legged friends at home, as no pets are allowed on our trails.

If you are volunteering as a group of 5 or more, please contact our team coordinator at kjsmead@comcast.net. This helps us plan for tools and supplies.

Ages: 14 and up (ages under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian).

Special Brown-Bag Lunch Day, Wednesday, August 15: After our work morning, bring your own lunch for an informal gathering with fellow volunteers at China Camp Village. Cold drinks provided by Friends of China Camp.

Cancellations will be posted on our events calendar.
