Jesse Jones Park offers free educational tours to groups on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the months of September through May. Join the Jesse Jones Park Volunteers to help lead school-aged children, scouts, and other groups for an interactive Texas pioneer history program that includes a visit to the Nature Center and a one hour walk through the replica 1830’s-era Redbud Hill Homestead and Akokisa Indian Village.
No experience necessary. Training will be provided by staff and experienced volunteers.
New volunteers will need to complete a volunteer application form that is located on the Jesse Jones Park volunteer webpage ( https://www.hcp4.net/parks/jjp/volunteer/). Because we work with and around children at the park, all volunteers must submit to a background check at no cost to you.
For more information, please contact volunteer coordinator Brent Wilkins at bwilkins@hcp4.net or 281-446-8588.
