Join the Ann Arbor Parks Volunteer Program and the Marshall St. Neighbors for a volunteer workday at Pilgrim Park, a neighborhood park with a playground in need of some love! To keep the play area safe, we’ll be spreading a fresh layer of play-safe woodchips under and around the equipment using wheelbarrows, pitchforks, and rakes. This task makes a big difference in safety and helps the playground look well cared for.
