Love to volunteer? Have a desire to learn more about the East Bay Regional Parks? Want to share your favorite parks or trails with peers and the general public? Then consider becoming an official Regional Parks Ambassador.

The East Bay Regional Park District Public Affairs office is always looking to expand its network of wonderful volunteers who enjoy interacting with the public about the East Bay Regional Park District and sharing their favorite parks, trails, and more.

To become a Regional Parks Ambassador, you'll be invited to:

• Participate in a free Park District training series conducted quarterly.
• Represent the Park District, alongside staff, at a variety of community-based events, fairs, festivals, and official park dedications.

All Ambassadors will receive an official collectible pin and T-shirt, along with the official Ambassador Guidebook full of facts, figures, and interesting things about the East Bay Regional Park District.

Training classes for Regional Parks Ambassadors are held quarterly at the East Bay Regional Park District Richard Trudeau Training Center located at 11500 Skyline Boulevard, Oakland. The next training will be held Saturday, February 21, 2009, from 10 a.m. to noon. Registration is required. To RSVP contact Carol Johnson at (510) 544-2206 or email cjohnson@ebparks.org.
