Brandywine Creek State Park welcomes work, school, and other groups interested in scheduling a service project for their teams, classes, and more!
A group service project is a great way to provide your organization with an opportunity:
- To give back to the community or to learn about the value of service.
- To promote team building or collaboration.
- To embrace a new challenge together or to step outside a comfort zone in a safe, fun social setting.
- To learn about Delaware State Parks operations and to see the impact of the group’s service.
- To take a break from the office, warehouse, classroom, etc., and enjoy the great outdoors.
- To accumulate service hours collectively.
The types of service projects available to groups are based on seasonal needs at Brandywine Creek State Park, progress of the parks’ improvement projects, and other factors. Service projects for school groups may prioritize educational value and are intended to be age-appropriate.
Types of seasonal service projects available to groups include:
- Trail maintenance and care
- Control of invasive plants and vines
- Playground maintenance (e.g., mulching, raking)
- Litter cleanup
Coordinators for group service projects may RESPOND AS TEAM to this opportunity and ask about scheduling a date and time that is compatible with the group’s schedule. Coordinators are also welcome to RESPOND AS TEAM to a scheduled service project if there are enough available shifts.
Note: The project site’s address may differ from the park’s address and will be provided during scheduling of a group service project.
