COVID-19: Operations and Programs at the Forest Park Conservancy

Forest Park ConservancyUncategorized

Please note: Due to the ongoing changes and recommendations from the CDC and local officials, the Forest Park Conservancy’s events and plans are subject to change. We will update our website and Event Calendar about any cancellations.

Dear Forest Park Stewards,

We take the health of the community very seriously. Due to the increased risks associated with COVID-19 (also called coronavirus), we have decided to take the necessary precautions to ensure the health and safety of our volunteers and staff.

It was not an easy decision, but until April 1st, Forest Park Conservancy has decided that all volunteer work parties, guided Discovery Hikes, and Crew Leader training for the month of March will be canceled. 

In regards to April and Earth Day celebrations, we will continue to assess the situation and keep our community updated on any decisions. Should you have any more detailed questions about an event in April, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator Zac via email.

3/18/20 Update: All April stewardship and Discovery Hikes have been canceled. Please see our Event Calendar for more details.

Many of our staff are under instruction to work remotely if possible and to use their paid sick leave if they feel unwell. If you need assistance you may reach us directly by phone or email.

We ask that our community stay safe and considerate of one another over the coming months.

Warm regards,
