![]() NPS Volunteer-In-Parks (VIP) ProgramEvery year, thousands of volunteers across the nation donate their time and effort to America’s national parks. Here at Missouri National Recreational River (MNRR), we are grateful for our incredible volunteers, who help care for valuable resources and educate visitors about the river. From taking part in river cleanups to staffing the Mobile Ranger Station, from maintaining park trails to teaching beginner paddlers how to kayak, volunteers play a vital role in protecting and preserving the natural, cultural, and recreational resources of the Missouri River.
