Parks are for people! Our green
spaces serve as a bastion of renewal for our minds,
bodies and spirits. Just as we need to be refreshed,
so do the park facilities. Spend part of your day
helping Caledon State Park staff get the park ready
for the coming season. Projects include working on
the Visitor Center (painting and more) and working
on our gardens and trails. Come by yourself or with
a group. Please call ahead so that we may set you
up with a project that best suits your interests.
