Hundreds of Volunteers will help care for Brooklyn’s great, landmark Park
Take ownership of your Park! Join a citywide effort to tidy up and support our urban greenspaces, including Prospect Park. On It’s My Park! Day, our volunteers will be all geared up with brooms, shovels, rakes, and trash grabbers. Come down and receive a free T-shirt and other goodies. Bring a friend!
10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Meet at the Wollman Rink in Prospect Park. The Wollman Rink is best accessed through the Parkside/Ocean Avenues entrance or the Lincoln Road/Ocean Avenue entrance to the Park. Q, S, or B Train to Prospect Park station

Volunteering to clean up the Park just got more rewarding! The Independence Community Foundation, a long-time Prospect Park supporter, has agreed to donate $10 for every bag of trash or plant debris collected by Volunteers before June 30th. Sign up to be a volunteer now, and help keep Prospect Park beautiful for years to come: http://www.prospectpark.org/

In partnership with the City of New York and the community, the Prospect Park Alliance
restores, develops, and operates Prospect Park for the enjoyment of all by caring for the
natural environment, preserving historic design, and serving the public through facilities
and programs. Prospect Park’s 585 acres of meadows, waterfalls, forest, lakes,
and athletic facilities comprise a masterwork of urban green space.
