Event Details

National Public Lands Day is the nation’s largest one day volunteer event. This year it falls during a landmark year, America’s 250th birthday! What better way to celebrate than to give back to our public lands. This event also supports the First Lady’s TennesseeServes initiative. It is her belief that each Tennessean had the power to transform their community by finding an area they are passionate about and giving of their time, talents, and resources to make Tennessee a better place. 


Come join Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park staff to pick up litter around the park. Participants should wear close toed shoes and bring water. Gloves and trash bags will be provided. We will meet at the beginning of the Pathway of History near the Farmers Market at 9:00 am. See you on the Mall! Please register through the link!
