Mark your calendars for our 2018 Friends of Glen Providence Park events, including nature walks, volunteer days, citizen science, events for kids, and summer concerts! We also have regular Invasive Plant Removal Fridays – email us to join our crew.

As we post details for each month, we will link to that event with information and logistics.  All events are free, family-friendly, and open to the public – we hope to see you in the park!
