More than a hundred volunteers joined San Jose FORCE staff on Saturday for the FORCE Foundation’s annual park beautification day.
Working alongside neighborhood residents and the regional parks department, the group planted forty-two trees, cleared and re-gravelled roughly a mile of walking trail, repainted benches and picnic tables, and removed several truckloads of debris.
“It is a long day and it does not look like much when you start. By the afternoon you can see exactly what a hundred people can do.” VP, Community Relations, San Jose FORCE
An Annual Commitment
The park beautification day has been held every year since the club’s founding in 2023, rotating between regional parks across the greater San Jose area. The Foundation funds materials and equipment, and commits to returning to each site for follow-up maintenance.
Getting Involved
Volunteer opportunities are announced through the FORCE Nation newsletter and on the Community page. No prior experience is required and all equipment is provided.
