RESOLVE TO VOLUNTEER THIS NEW YEAR
Ring in 2010 by resolving to spend some time volunteering for Fort Worth’s Parks and Community Services Department (PACS). The department is always seeking volunteers to help with everything from helping horticulturists plant roses at the Botanic Garden to assisting with after school activities at any of the community centers around town.
Yearly, PACS depends on the kindness of volunteers. Last year, over 26,000 volunteers spent 277,774 hours teaching classes, coaching teams, refereeing sporting events, working in the Fort Worth Nature Center and Refuge and much more. Volunteerism also allows participants to make new friends and develop new skills.
