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. Trail maintenance projects may involve walking on soft surface trails, twisting and turning, pushing wheelbarrows, and using sharp tools to cut branches. Ivy removal projects may require kneeling, pulling, and twisting as well as possibly lifting plants overhead to load into a dumpster. 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.
