In partnership with the Riot Fest Foundation, we’re looking for volunteers to help out a total of three days this summer by mulching trees, picking up trash, pulling weeds, planting flowers, and more.
All are welcome, and no experience is necessary. Volunteers will be rewarded for their time with tickets to Riot Fest 2019. In addition, we’re once again inviting Douglas Park neighbors to register for free admission to the festival. Read all the details below to participate or sign up.
