Park Steward: Litter & Refuse Removal

Volunteers help keep Swatara State Park clean and welcoming by removing litter and refuse from 34 miles of park trails, along boundary roadways, and in creekside areas. This work improves visitor safety, protects wildlife, and helps maintain the park’s natural beauty. Volunteers should contact the park in advance to ensure they have proper equipment, including trash pickers, bags, gloves, and reflective vests, before beginning litter pickup activities.
