VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

He that plants trees loves others besides himself. Thomas Fuller

East Sacramento Preservation Neighborhood Association is partnering with the Sacramento City Parks Arborist and the Sacramento Tree Foundation to replace missing trees in McKinley Park.

We need your help!

Join us on Saturday, February 1, 2025, at 9:00 AM to plant 10–15 trees. We’re looking for 30–35 volunteers to make this project a success.

What to Expect:

  • City staff will provide equipment to auger planting holes and supply stakes.
  • Volunteers will clear holes, plant, and stake the trees.
  • Please wear close-toe shoes and bring a pair of work gloves. Shovels and additional tools will be provided by the City Parks Department.

Let’s create a lasting legacy of shade and beauty for future generations.

RSVP to Will Green

Busy Weekend in McKinley Park: Volunteers Needed

Posted on 12/12/2024 by admin

Saturday:
Join us in caring for the roses in the historic rose garden. Wear closed-toe shoes and dress for the weather! Tools, instructions on proper pruning techniques, and warm coffee will be provided.

Sunday:
Plan to join us at 10 am Sunday, December 15th, for our monthly Trash Dash. Meet us by the duck pond near the library building. We’re expecting a brisk but clear morning to get our park in tip-top shape. This is a family-friendly event and a great opportunity for local students to earn community service credits.

We’ll provide trash bags, litter grabbers, gloves, and water. Bring your can-do attitude, a smile, and a reusable water bottle to fill up. Come out, meet new friends, and help make our neighborhood sparkle.

Look for our signs at the park!
