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!
