Friends of the James River Park engages with thousands of volunteers throughout the year. From litter removal, tree and native species planting to organizing or manning special events we offer volunteers the opportunity become directly involved in the protection, preservation, expansion and improvement of Richmond’s greatest resource. We also have opportunities for specific volunteer roles on a more permanent basis within the Park.
Park Hosts help maintain a culture of visitor support in the Park by providing directional information, sharing information about Park rules, and sharing important observations with JRPS Staff.
Visitor Center Hosts staff the Reedy Creek Visitor’s Center where they provide information about the Park and help enrich the visitor experience.
River Safety Amabssadors help ensure that Park visitors have the information they need to stay safe while recreating on the James. These volunteers work at the various river access points within the Park when river conditions are especially dangerous for inexperienced users.
