National Public Lands Day 2024

Saturday, September 28, 2024

Point Reyes National Seashore hosted one volunteer event in recognition of National Public Lands Day 2024 on September 28.

National Public Lands Day (usually observed on the fourth Saturday of September) is an annual event designed to encourage people to get outside and visit places such as Point Reyes National Seashore. National Public Lands Day is also a national volunteer effort to encourage folks to give back to the very lands we use to hike, bike, swim, explore, picnic, or just relax. It is the nation's largest hands-on volunteer effort to improve and enhance the public lands!

National Public Lands Day began in 1994 with three federal agencies and 700 volunteers. Now, eight federal agencies and many state and local lands participate in this annual day of caring for shared lands.

Give back to your public lands! Below is a description of the event held at Point Reyes National Seashore on the 2024 National Public Lands Day.
