Forest Hills High School has volunteered! Give them a shout out!
APA Volunteer Days are an expansion of our already great partnership with NY Cares and in response to the large amount of requests we get from the public to volunteer in Astoria Park. Volunteer opportunities average twice a month, March through November. Thank you for wanting to make a difference!
The Astoria Park Alliance works closely with Park Managers to identify need, plan work projects, and facilitate volunteers on the ground. Please email us here at APAgreetings or message us on Facebook if you are interested in volunteering. Please note: minor children (anyone under the age of 18) must be accompanied by a supervising adult.
Here are the dates for March:
March 15 10:30 am to 12:30 pm, meet behind the Field House
March 29 10:30 am to 12:30 pm, meet behind the Field House
Check here and our Facebook page for upcoming dates!
Please travel lightly, wear work clothes and shoes (no open toes) (layers for weather) and bring water.Thanks for your passion for Astoria Park!

'Pleased to report about the fantastic clean-up completed in Astoria Park with the assistance of the Green Teens out of the ARROW Recreation Center. The Astoria Park Alliance hosted 9 green teens, 6 of whom were completing their very first project. Along with the regular volunteer group all participants were able to accumulate up 90+ bags of leaves along the park. The Green Teens received fantastic reviews for their bagging enthusiasm, ability to follow instructions and overall fantastic attitude on what weather wise was a dreary day. Thank you...'

'Yes, Kim! The raking and the compost and mulch prevented any erosion on this corner. We will plant some Lariape to keep the soil from washing away. '
