The details

About this event

The New Volunteer Open House at Wehr Nature Center is a hands-on opportunity to contribute to the beauty and health of Whitnall Park. This event invites people of all ages and abilities to participate in a community clean-up effort. Volunteers will be provided with gloves, bags, and buckets, though bringing your own is encouraged.

Meeting at the visitor center, participants will receive their assignments and equipment before heading out to make a tangible impact on the environment. It's a chance to enjoy the outdoors, meet like-minded individuals, and play a part in maintaining the park's natural beauty. Register in advance to ensure your supplies are ready, and consider reaching out for any needed accommodations.

From the organizer

Join us to make an impact at Wehr Nature Center and throughout Whitnall Park by joining the Great Whitnall Park Clean-up. We will provide gloves, bags, and buckets for the clean-up, but feel free to bring your own. Together, we can make a huge difference in the health of our environment. All volunteers should meet at the visitor center at 10 am to receive their assigned area, equipment, and instructions. Please register by emailing Sophia.Detweiler@milwaukeecountywi.gov, so we have your supplies ready. This program is open to all ages and abilities. If you’d like to request accommodations, please contact our Access & Inclusion Coordinator Emily Brown at Emily.Brown@milwaukeecountywi.gov.
