Globe — A Volunteer Day is planned for Saturday, April 29 at the Old Dominion Historic Mine Park. With spring in full swing, there will be plenty of cleanup from the winter season as well as new work to be done.

Community and civic groups and individuals are invited to come out and help continue the work on this gem of a park. Work will range from cleaning trails and display areas to more specialized work such as securing exhibits, putting up signage and delineating the parking area. The work will be under way from 7 a.m. through the morning.

Water and snacks will be provided, and it is suggested that volunteers wear long pants and closed toe shoes and bring gloves, sunscreen and a hat. Anyone with tools they would like to donate for the day, such as rakes, hoes and clippers is invited to bring them. As a walking park, the OD is a wonderful addition to Globe’s park system, with trails ranging from easy to moderate. And each trail offers a wealth of information on the history of the mine, Globe and mining in general.

Old Dominion Park is accessed off of Murphy Street near DeMarco’s. If you haven’t been there this year, take a few hours during this beautiful spring weather and check it out. If your group is interested in participating, please leave your contact information with the Chamber of Commerce at 928-425-4495.

The chamber is working with the community volunteer group that has been hard at work for many years to make the park and its amenities a reality. All volunteers are welcome at this special event.
