Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy staff hold regularly scheduled group Volunteer Sweep events at our Pittsburgh Parks. At each Volunteer Sweep, a small group of volunteers (typically 5 to 15) better the health of the park by cutting vines, pulling invasive plants, and clearing trash. Projects vary by season. Tools, gloves, and training are provided to the volunteers.

The Volunteer Sweeps that are scheduled this year will be held from 5:00 to 7:00 pm on the following days:

Tuesday, May 16
Tuesday, September 5
Tuesday, June 13
Tuesday, July 11
Tuesday, August 8
Tuesday, October 3

If you are interested in volunteering for any of the scheduled dates, register online on the Riverview Parks Volunteer Sweeps event page. Participants should meet at Chapel Shelter in Riverview Park, located at 366 Riverview Avenue.
