Do you want to see the new land at Lockhart State Park? Then come lend us a hand!

Lockhart State Park recently acquired 188 new acres, which is very exciting!  Unfortunately, some of that new property is covered with trash.  Join us for a trash pick up party to help clean it up!  You will get a special “first look” at the new property while lending a helping hand.  This activity is recommended for ages 12 and up.  All volunteers must sign a liability waiver to participate.  No registration required.

Prepare: Wear mud boots (or waiters) and gloves.  Most of the debris that needs to be cleared is stuck in the mud or under water.  Expect to walk about 1/2-mile on uneven ground.  Bring water to drink.

Meet: In the overflow parking lot. If driving from park HQ, pass the pool and take your first left-hand turn.  Look for the brown “overflow parking area” sign.

Fees: This volunteer opportunity is FREE.  When you check in to Park HQ, please tell our clerks you are here to volunteer, and they will give you a complimentary pass for your vehicle.  Whenever you volunteer for Lockhart State Park, your entrances fees are waived!
