We'll be celebrating the Civil Rights leader’s life and legacy all weekend with volunteer and engagement programs from Friday, January 17 - Monday, January 20, 2025. From park maintenance to habitat restoration, service work to guided walks – there is something for everyone. Bring yourself, your friends, and your family to kick off the new year and take part in your community on this National Day of Service! Most events require pre-registration.
When: Friday, January 17 – Monday, January 20, 2025.
Where: Project locations vary throughout the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA). Stay up to date on park closure information.
