(Anita) In celebration of the 100th anniversary of Iowa state parks in 2020, join the staff and Friends Group of Lake Anita State Park to help care for the park at a special clean-up event on Saturday, Sept. 26. Nearly 30 parks across Iowa are hosting volunteer events.
The volunteer event at Lake Anita State Park will start at 9:00 a.m.. Volunteers will help add rock along the multi-use trail and various spots. As an alternative, volunteers can also pick up trash around the campground. Please bring gloves, hard rakes, brooms or blowers if you have them.
For details about the statewide Volunteer Day, visit www.iowadnr.gov/volunteer. Activities will be unique for each park depending on clean-up needs, but may include litter pick-up, staining or painting buildings, planting trees, clearing trails and more. Park staff will encourage social distancing.
Volunteers are encouraged to share their activities on social media with #IowaStateParks100.
