2. Adopt-a-Trail is a public service program for volunteers to assist the city in keeping trails beautiful. Volunteers / sponsors are responsible for trash pick-up 2 times per month and reporting any vandalism. This program is open to community groups, businesses, churches and individual citizens. Please contact Urbandale Parks & Recreation at 278-3963 and it will be determined if an initial on-site meeting is required to go over maintenance needs and frequency requirements.
