One Beautiful World hosts beach cleanups at Hugh Taylor Birch State Park that are open and available for anyone to participate in. This is a great opportunity for students to get their required volunteer hours for school, and is fun for the whole family.
Start your morning with friends, a cup of coffee and pastry. See what's happening in the park for the week. Join other campers, park visitors and volunteers for coffee, tea and pastries provided by Oscar Scherer's volunteers. Meet new friends, learn about the parks and enjoy your cup of coffee.
Wake up early for a breakfast in the park. Pancakes (blueberry or plain), sausage, coffee, tea and orange juice served by Oscar's park volunteers. A park ranger will be available from 8:30 to 9 a.m. for questions and information about the park.
This popular annual series this year will be a hybrid event, which can be attended in person or online.
