Advance registration is requested. Ellsworth Springs Work Party Volunteer RSVP.
Join volunteers from the City of Vancouver’s Adopt-A-Park program to care for Ellsworth Springs East Urban Natural Area. We’ll be removing ivy to make space for a native planting project happening on November 7. No prior experience necessary!
Training, gloves, tools, water, and snacks will be provided. This opportunity is family-friendly and great for teens. Volunteers should dress for the weather and wear long pants and closed-toe shoes. Youth under 18 must bring a signed minor consent form. There is no bathroom at this location.
Accessibility is important to us and we’ve taken it into account while planning this event. Work is primarily done in a quiet natural area with potential for some infrequent loud work sounds. Ivy removal projects may require kneeling, pulling, and twisting as well as possibly lifting and moving piles of ivy. There will be a space in the RSVP form for you to let us know if there are any accessibility needs you have so that we can do our best to find a volunteer role that will work for you.
Registration will close 24 hours prior to the event. If registration is closed and you are still interested in attending, please email cityvolunteer@cityofvancouver.us to let us know you will be a walk-up and you can sign in on-site.
