Opt Outside Planting Party with Parks Tacoma, November 28th, 9am-noon at Dickman Mill Park!

In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday and the larger month of gratitude, we are extending our sincerest thanks to all of our volunteers for the hard work they do throughout the park district all year long to keep our parks clean, beautiful, and safe for all. Keeping the community connected to each other and to nature is one of our most important goals.

As a way to show our appreciation and to support REI’s #OptOutside Black Friday initiative, you are encouraged to spend time outdoors at Dickman Mill Park and plant native plants with us!

#OptOutside was founded by REI as a way to get people outside in any capacity as an alternative to Black Friday shopping. In this spirit, long-time Park Steward and City of Destiny award winner, Craig will be hosting a volunteer work party at Dickman Mill Park on Friday, November 28th from 9am-12pm. We’d love to see you opting out with us to strengthen our community and care for our parks!
