Description

Join over 200 UNLV students for our semesterly tradition, Service Day. This Spring Service Day, go out and do three hours of service with various community partners around the Las Vegas Valley. Tasks vary depending on what the community partner may need but volunteers can expect to lift heavy items, be consistently moving throughout the day and doing all sorts of repetitive tasks. Please make sure you wear long pants and closed-toe shoes. No exceptions will be made for anyone wearing otherwise. Long-sleeve shirt also highly encouraged.

Volunteers will meet at the Student Union in SU 208. Please make sure to arrive on time at 8 a.m. to meet with your group and participate in a short educational activity with your volunteer group.

Transportation is limited to a single van that can fit 12 people max. We, therefore, strongly encourage carpooling to the Clark County Wetlands Park to facilitate and make things easier for all participants. Please stay afterwards to join us for our post service celebration with free food and other vendors!

The Clark County Wetlands Park is the largest park in the Clark County, Nevada park system. The park is on the east side of the Las Vegas valley and runs from the various water treatment plants near the natural beginning of the Las Vegas Wash to where the wash flows under Lake Las Vegas and later into Lake Mead. Volunteers will be picking trash up found throughout the park.
