Adopt-A-Park Program

Looking for a volunteer opportunity that allows you to enjoy the outdoors and set your own schedule? Make a positive impact in your community with the Adopt-A-Park program!

Here's how you can get involved:

1. Adopt your favourite park, playground, shrub bed, green strip or cemetery. The impact of your work is profound and there is no minimum time commitment

Some common tasks are:

  • Weed control
  • Litter pickup
  • Spreading mulch
  • Checking for damage/vandalism
  • Shrub/flower bed maintenance

2. One-time litter cleanup. Choose your park and grab some friends or co-workers. These cleanups are a great team building activity for organizations or groups. 

3. Neighbourhood cleanup. Get involved and take an active role in improving your neighbhourhood by organizing a community cleanup. 

4. Stay informed, stay inspired! Subscribe to our Volunteer Newsletter to be the first to know about opportunities to make a difference in your community. 

5. Volunteer in an upcoming community litter cleanup or local event! 

Tracking the work and hours of our volunteers is important. Please register your park adoption or cleanup by clicking on the "Sign Up" tab below.  We will provide you with all the supplies, bags, gloves and pickers. We can arrange for garbage bag pickup afterwards. We can also help spread the word about your group or neighbourhood cleanup by including it in the next Volunteer Newsletter.

Volunteer Responsibilities:

  • Adopt-A-Park or register your one-time or neighbourhood cleanup
  • Submit bi-annual cleanup and reports
  • Follow health and safety guidelines
  • Report damage or vandalism through 311

City Responsibilities:

  • We can provide cleanup supplies
