Volunteers are wanted to help the city of Kent build a new trail and make other improvements at Glenn Nelson Park, South 268th Street and Military Road.
The work party will run from 9 a.m. to noon June 6 as part of the city’s participation in American Hiking Society’s National Trails Day.
The Home Depot store in Kent donated a $1,000 grant to the city to help fund the event. Home Depot employees also will participate in helping with the park improvements.
Volunteers are asked to bring work gloves and a shovel, wear sturdy shoes or boots (no sandals allowed) and dress for the weather, as the event is held rain or shine.
To register for National Trails Day and learn about upcoming volunteer opportunities at Kent Parks, call 253-856-5111 or go to www.Kentwaparks.com.
