Service Outings
Central Piedmont Group members and community volunteers are needed to work in local parks and nature preserves. The outings provide a valuable service for Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation. The work is rewarding and provides a chance to spend time in lovely settings. CPG needs your help!
Service Outings are paused as well. You'll be able to find details and sign up for Sierra Club organized service outings on our Meetup page when we start up again. You can also contact Service Outings Leader Carolyn Cooper: ckcooper51@gmail.com
