Three more chances this Fall for teens to help our parks.


Teens have the chance to help beautify and improve our parks in November and December. 

The FRESH Crew Volunteer Days will have three more sessions in 2025. 

During these days, teens volunteers will clear brush, collect seed, scatter seed and help beautify park district land. 

FRESH Crew Teen Volunteer days are from 2 - 4 p.m., on:

  • November 1 - Meadowbrook Park
  • November 15 - Weaver Park
  • December 6 - Busey Woods

This is for grades 6 - 12. It's a great way to meet new friends, learn new skills, learn about the environment and complete service hours for school. There is no registration required. 

Call (217) 384-4062 for more information. Or email Connor at cjross@urbanaparks.org. Teens and parents can also sign up for a volunteer newsletter on the Urbana Park District web page. 

Everyone in grades 6 - 12 is invited to FRESH Crew Volunteer Days!
