Saturday Volunteer Day, August 20

The Monarch Mile is an inspired all-volunteer group working directly with Burbank's Parks and Recreation Department.  The project was formed in 2019 with an eagerness to plant and maintain local native plants along the Chandler Bikeway.

Who can take part?

• There is no age minimum to volunteer with The Monarch Mile, though the type of work might be best suited for age 7+.
• All minors must be accompanied by an adult and need to fill out a minor release form to participate.* This form can be signed on the day of the event.
