Join the City of Takoma Park in volunteering for the City's Earth Day Event! This popular annual event is held rain or shine and will take place this year on Sunday, April 12th, 2026. Volunteers are needed to support a number of activities, including set-up, breakdown, partner outreach booth support, children's activities support, bike activities support, EV showcase support, and more. This event will be held in 2 location nodes; the Sligo Creek Stream Valley Park and the Takoma Park Silver Spring Co-op. More detailed information will be available on the City's website: https://takomaparkmd.gov/1950/Earth-Month-in-Takoma-Park
All volunteers will be requested to attend a mandatory in-person training in March at the City's Public Work Office ahead of the event, where node location and activities will be assigned. Volunteers will receive a free t-shirt and those working shifts of 3 hours or more will be provided lunch. SSL hours are available for this event. We thank you for volunteering with us; this event wouldn't be possible without you!
