Become a Preserve Park Steward and help make a difference!

The Phoenix Parks and Recreation Department is seeking volunteers who can help monitor, protect, and maintain over 35,000 acres of preserve lands. With a limited number of Park Rangers on hand to manage these public lands, becoming a Park Steward is a way to "give back" to these beautiful areas that so many enjoy. Park Stewards are a valuable part of our conservation team.

There are many ways in which you can become a member of the Park Steward team. From being a trail monitor, to maintaining trailhead gates; from assisting with litter pick up, to providing educational information to park users. Park Stewards can even perform their duties while using their own personal equipment such as a bicycle or horse! They also receive identification gear, field training, and continuous support from park staff. We invite YOU to share in our commitment to caring for YOUR Desert Parks & Mountain Preserves.

Adopt-A-Park is a volunteer program that allows the City of Phoenix to maximize its resources and offer residents an opportunity to give something back to their community.

The City of Phoenix has hundreds of parks, preserves, and facilities that are available for a group or individual to adopt or sponsor. You can adopt an entire park or specific parts of a park such as: Sports Fields, Flower Beds, Trails, Courts, Park benches/Picnic Tables, Playgrounds, Urban Lakes and Waterways, Trees & Shrubs, Parking Areas, Exercise course, and more.

We are open to any group looking to give back to our community! Here are a few examples: hiking and biking enthusiasts, neighborhood associations, religious groups, schools, scout troops, military, or civic associations. We also invite individuals to join our Adopt-A-Park program.

There is no cost to adopt a park, just a committment to caring for the park in whichever way you decide. Click on the attachment below to view the Adopt-a-Park FAQ.
