Volunteers are needed to help hide rocks and place signs along the greenways for our annual Greenway Quest scavenger hunt! Volunteers will place rocks and signs along a selected greenway and then pick up signs in May.

  1. Volunteers will pick up rocks and signs from the Great Rivers Greenway office on a weekday from Monday, March 17- Friday, March 28. (Pickup times are 9:00 am - 5:00 pm with late pickup available on Wednesday, March 19th [until 7:00 pm])

  2. Volunteers will then hide the rocks and place the signs over the course of Friday, March 28 - Sunday, March 30.

  3. Volunteers will pick up signs between Thursday, May 1 - Sunday, May 11.

After signing up, volunteers will receive a confirmation email with a Google Sheet, where they will place their name next to the section of greenway where they will hide rocks and place signs. Please note that segments are on a first come basis.

About Great Rivers Greenway

Location:

3745 Foundry Way, Suite 253, Saint Louis, MO 63110, US

Mission Statement

Connecting the St. Louis region with greenways so people can explore their rivers, parks and communities, making it a vibrant place to live, work, and play.

Description

Great Rivers Greenway is a regional public agency, created by a vote of the people in the year 2000 to leave a legacy for future generations. That vote created a sales tax that funds our organization to build, bring to life and care for the network of greenways. In 2013, the region dedicated additional funds to parks and greenways, and we became the stewards of the local investment in the CityArchRiver Project, the transformation of the area surrounding the Gateway Arch.

Residents of the St. Louis region voted for and invested in a clear, bold vision - a dynamic network of parks and open spaces linked together by greenways, connecting our communities so people can live life outside. The network of greenways strengthens the social, economic and environmental well-being of our region. Community members proudly invest in, care for and champion greenways for years to come.
