Volunteering in DuPage County Forest Preserves

By Jeff Gahris

Have you thought of getting outdoors in a new and fun way? Consider volunteering for the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County. We are most fond of opportunities to help preserve our natural resources. After all, our own Bruce Blake is a site steward at the Glacial Ridge unit of Churchill Woods Forest Preserve. You will find his workdays scheduled on our calendar.

There are other volunteer program opportunities as well, including working with horses at Danada Equestrian Center, getting hands on with animals at the DuPage Wildlife Conservation Center, historical and cultural interpretation, trail watching, and other activities. The District has hundreds of volunteers, but there is always room for more volunteers ready to have enriching experiences. See more at https://www.dupageforest.org/get-involved/volunteer
