NEEF’s National Public Lands Day (NPLD): NPLD is the nation's largest single-day volunteer event for public lands. Established in 1994 and held annually on the fourth Saturday in September, this celebration brings together thousands of volunteers to help restore and improve public lands across the country.

Tennessee Serves: First Lady Maria Lee's Tennessee Serves initiative is designed to transform the state through service. Each month, Tennesseans are invited to participate in a service challenge to get involved in supporting their communities. During September, the First Lady is encouraging Tennesseans to work to preserve Tennessee's abundant beauty and natural resources by serving at Tennessee State Parks!
