Volunteering for the Department of Natural Resources is a great way to get outdoors and enjoy the State Parks, get exercise, and breathe some fresh air while still having fun and enjoying the magnificent scenery that Michigan is known for.

Volunteers are needed from Berrien County north to Muskegon County. The State calls this a volunteer stewardship program throughout the month of May. Come prepared with appropriate clothing for outdoor work, layered, if possible, for a good days' work. Gloves and drinking water are a must.

Youth groups, scouts, service clubs and classes are needed to locate and remove the invasive weed, known as Garlic Mustard. This plant is a threat to wildflowers like trillium and bloodroot along with others.

The Earth Day Celebration runs from 9am to 5pm on Saturday, April 20th. Register by April 1 for an official Run shirt to participate in the Earth Day 5K Trail Walk/Run taking place on Saturday, April 20 at 10am. This is the chance to experience the beautiful trails of Kalamazoo Nature Center located at 7000 North Westnedge Avenue. Registration Fee is $25.00 & includes the official Run shirt, if registered by April 1.

Kids, ages 8 & under can take part in the 0.6 mile Raccoon Run at 11am & is a stroller-friendly walk/run around the Habitat Haven Trail.
