The Friends of Albany Parks program is designed to encourage community members to get involved with the care, maintenance and beautification of their favorite neighborhood park. Park Gala events will provide social gatherings geared toward developing ideas for park improvement and getting residents involved with helping maintain our parks. They will also help foster a better sense of community and build social capital as neighbors meet and work with one another. The Galas will also provide an opportunity to volunteer for specific park maintenance tasks. Friends of Albany Park members will come together for a Clean-Up Day two weeks after the Gala. Each member who attends the Clean-Up Day will receive an official Friends of Albany Parks T-shirt.

Additional park events will be announced in the Fall 2014 Activity Guide. For more information contact Liam Kelly or visit www.albanyca.org/volunteer
