Volunteer Opportunities From: United Way of Marquette County/ Yoopers United

The Marquette County Planning Division is seeking enthusiastic volunteers to help make the Grand Re-Opening of Little Trout Lake Park a memorable celebration for the entire community!

Join us on Saturday, June 13, from 12:00–4:00 PM at Little Trout Lake Park in K.I. Sawyer as we celebrate the transformation of this important community gathering space. The event will feature family-friendly activities, live music, vendors, a 5K run/walk, and opportunities for residents to reconnect with one another and experience the park's new amenities.

We are looking for volunteers to assist with a variety of activities throughout the day, including:

• Activity Centers support (such as bag toss, children's sand and water play, volleyball)

• General event support (directing attendees to activity areas, restrooms, and parking locations)

• Parking and Traffic Coordination Team to help visitors safely access the event

• Setup and Cleanup Crew (before and after the main event)

Volunteer shifts are flexible and can be scheduled anytime between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM, allowing you to participate in a way that fits your schedule.

This celebration marks the culmination of years of planning, partnerships, and community investment to revitalize Little Trout Lake Park as a welcoming destination for recreation, connection, and community pride. Volunteers will play an important role in ensuring guests have a positive experience and helping showcase all that this renewed park has to offer.
