🌳 What Do the Friends of Monticello Park & Recreation Do? 🌳

The Friends of Monticello Park & Recreation is a volunteer-driven group dedicated to supporting, enhancing, and advocating for our local parks and recreation programs. We help raise funds, support special projects and events, and work behind the scenes to make our parks, programs, and community spaces even better for everyone.

Our goal is simple: to support the Parks & Rec department so they can continue creating safe, welcoming, and fun spaces for families, kids, and neighbors of all ages.

💚 Want to be part of the impact?
We’re always looking for:

Volunteers to help with events and projects

Community members interested in serving as board members

People who simply care about keeping Monticello’s parks thriving

No matter how much time you have, there’s a place for you with Friends of the Parks. Come learn more, get involved, and help make a difference right here in our community!

Whether it’s a monetary donation or volunteering your time, your generosity helps keep our parks welcoming, beautiful, and accessible for everyone to enjoy.

Giving doesn’t always have to come in a box — sometimes the greatest gifts are time, care, and community spirit. 💚

Thank you for helping make our parks a place for memories, connection, and joy, not just during the holidays, but all year long.
