I joined the Washington Market Park board for our local Tribeca park in 2004, and have done volunteer work in various capacities over the last eight years. My most loved volunteer event which I head up twice a year is It's My Park Day's children planting events. A few months park, Kirsti Bainbridge of the Partnership organization asked me to write a paragraph (or two) on the planting events for inclusion in a possible brochure. I did and much to my surprise it was published. I was given a copy of the booklet last Saturday, on It's My Park Day appropriately enough. Here is my little piece of writing. The joy of volunteering, I hope comes through.
