Volunteering is a great way to get involved, meet people and support PPNA's wonderful events. PPNA sponsors many events each year, so there are many opportunities to volunteer! You do not have to be a resident of Powderhorn Park to volunteer.
We recognize that everyone leads a very busy life. So we have many one-time or short-term volunteer options. Below are some examples of annual volunteer needs. We'd love to have as much or as little time as you can offer to make our events spectacular!
If you wish to volunteer or learn about other volunteer opportunities, please contact Shonda Allen at (612) 722-4817.
You can also get involved with one of our committees!
