IOWA – More than 20 Iowa state parks and forests will host clean-up events today during Statewide Volunteer Day. Iowans are invited to join park staff to help care for Iowa’s natural areas, freshen up campgrounds and facilities, and spend time outdoors. Clean-up efforts will be unique for each park depending on needs, and may include litter pick-up, staining or painting buildings, removing invasive species, rebuilding picnic tables and more.
