Volunteer Vacation – Texas Parks and Wildlife
- Updated: April 3, 2015
April is National Volunteer Month and while some folks like a chance to get away from work and take it easy, one group of people who are already retired, well, they’d rather work on their vacation and for nothing more than to help out a state park. Texas Parks and Wildlife takes a look back at some of the first volunteers on their state park vacation. More than half a million hours of volunteer labor contributed to state parks in Texas in one year. That’s a contribution of over $6-million dollars in labor. Both the American Hiking Society and the Sierra Club sponsor “Volunteer Vacations” across the country. For more information on volunteering in a Texas State Park, visit www.tpwd.state.tx.us or check the state park nearest you.
