Saturday, September 25 is National Public Lands Day and DNR will be hosting work parties on DNR-managed lands across the state.  Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark and DNR would like to extend an invitation and encourage you to come lend a hand.

Volunteers are an integral part of keeping our recreation areas safe and functional. In 2009,volunteers logged more than 73,000 hours in DNR-managed recreation areas maintaining and cleaning trails, campgrounds, and other facilities; working on restoration projects; doing minor repairs; and even providing heavy equipment for large-scale tasks.

So come out and work beside DNR staff, meet new friends, and get better acquainted with our state lands while making a difference.
