Park Ambassadors

The Park Ambassador program helps to keep our parks and trails beautiful, safe, and clean.

Volunteers support this program by monitoring greenspace in Oakville and keeping our parks and trails litter-free.

With more than 340 active parks, playgrounds, and sports fields; three harbours; and 280 woodland parks and trails, there are plenty of opportunities for families, schools, youth groups, and corporations to get involved!
