The Greenway Foundation is currently looking for participants for our Greenway Leadership Corps! If you or someone you know is interested in joining GLC, contact The Greenway Foundation's Youth Program Coordinator, Ramsey Bernard. 

Whether you are thinking about being a wildlife biologist when you grow up, want to learn about volunteering with kids, love exploring the outdoors, or just want to meet new people and help out your South Platte River - come join the Greenway Leadership Corps!  We welcome everyone to the group and are an all-inclusive organization.

Greenway Leadership Corps (GLC) is a youth group in Denver for high school students to learn more about the environment and become active, informed citizens. Once a month starting in the spring of 2015, there will be a GLC Volunteer Day and meeting by the South Platte River. In addition to completing work projects to help out the South Platte Greenway, students will complete team-building exercises and also have a chance to hear from different guest speakers in the environmental field.  Students who come to at least one volunteer day will also have the opportunity to attend GLC Outdoor Adventures trips, where they will travel around the city or up to the mountains for awesome new experiences in nature and more opportunities to volunteer outdoors

Upcoming GLC volunteer opportunities:
  • Trash in the City - Volunteer Cleanup @ Confluence Park (February 16, 2015)
  • Park Design and Maintenance - Tour and Volunteering @ Johnson-Habitat (March 16, 2015)
  • Spring RiverSweep - Volunteer with 400 other Denverites @ Confluence Park (April 5, 2015)
  • The Art of Parks - Cleanup and help with Crafts @ City of Cuernevaca Park (May 9, 2015)
  • South Platte RiverFest - VIP Thank You to our Corps! @ Confluence Park (June 28, 2015)
