Description:
National Public Lands Day is the nation's largest hands-on volunteer effort to improve and enhance the public lands Americans enjoy. In 2010, 170,000 volunteers built trails and bridges, removed trash and invasive plants, planted trees and restored our water resources.

This year you can be part of the volunteer effort at Claytor Lake State Park. Come out and help us spruce up the landscaping around the historic Howe House and wedding gazebo. Many of the ornamental trees and flower beds will need attention that time of year.

Citizens, land managers and local communities who participate in National Public Lands Day build upon the magnificent and lasting legacy of the Civilian Conservation Corps to improve publicly held lands for greater enjoyment and enrichment of all Americans.

The park admission fee will be waived for all participants.
