This is done through providing special work projects, special events and programs, community outreach programs, educational activities, guided tours and communications, special exhibits, interpretive programs, fund raising activities, purchasing new equipment and supplies, and providing assistance to the park staff with any activity which is designed to meet the additional needs of the park to support the preservation and enhancement of the park’s cultural natural resources.

The Park offers a wonderful opportunity to:

Our volunteers are ambassadors for Hugh Taylor Birch

crucial information about the park’s operations, natural
communities, and plant and animal species. They are
professional, friendly, enthusiastic and love being part
of something truly meaningful.
