Volunteers are Fundamental to Parks and Recreation
Logan Parks and Recreation offers a variety of volunteer opportunities such as coaching youth, helping with special events, participating on various advisory boards, or helping with parks and trail cleanup projects. We provide volunteer activities for individuals, organizations, and businesses which can be one-day events or ongoing services when opportunities become available.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the value of one volunteer hour is $16.74 (2007 Utah data-2008 has not be released). This past year, community volunteers donated up to 24,823 hours to the Logan Parks and Recreation Department—which represents $415,537.02 added value to the City.
Boulevard Trail Ribbon Cutting
The Boulevard Trail project is a result of citizen input as reflected in the City's 2006 Parks, Recreation, Trails, and Open Space Master Plan. Construction of the Boulevard Trail project began in 2007.
