General Information
VOLUNTEER & PARK PARTNERS
Volunteering with Parks and Recreation can be a fun and rewarding experience for all ages. Each year, volunteers provide
thousands of hours of service to parks, programs and community centers, and they have been essential to our success.
Volunteers work in a variety of roles, including tutoring, athletic coaching and mentoring youth at community centers; planting
flowers and helping with landscaping on park grounds; and assisting with special events, such as the Ethnic Enrichment
Festival, the Wilderness Run or Kansas City’s Big Picnic.
KC Parks has formal partnerships established with neighborhood, community, business and not-for-profit organizations for
programs, events and projects. These partnerships allow our department to leverage resources and generate citywide interest
and support for our system facilities, programs and events. We appreciate your support!
