USE THE PARK. Come join us in the woods! Help our park be seen as a beloved and visited nature hot spot. Stop by for a nature break, take the Saturday yoga class, go on a Sunday bird or botany walk, play the disc golf course, hit the playground for some fitness time, fish by the lake. Use hashtags #burnetwoods #preserveburnetwoods and #cincyparks to share what makes you happy about your time in this urban greenspace. Ask a friend to join you. We would love to see and share your photos!
VOLUNTEER WITH PBW – as our group grows and our outreach extends, we will be needing help with all types of events – from fun for kids and adults to park clean-up days. When we reach out for help – raise your hand! DO YOU HAVE SPECIAL SKILLS? Send us an email at ilove.burnet@preserveburnetwoods.org. We might not know we need you yet, but you might know we do! Let us know!
EMAIL/CALL INFLUENCERS to tell them how important this park is to you. As our Park system faces an increasing budget shortfall (more than $50 million!), Cincinnati Parks and City Council need to know that our greenspace needs to be preserved. Use your voice! Several short emails which stay on point may be more effective than long singular emails. Email addresses for Cincinnati Parks and our current city council members are:
- cincy.parks@cincinnati-oh.gov;
- CityCouncil@cincinnati-oh.gov; mayor.cranley@cincinnati-oh.gov; christopher.smitherman@cincinnati-oh.gov; greg.landsman@cincinnati-oh.gov; david.mann@cincinnati-oh.gov; chris.seelbach@cincinnati-oh.gov; pg.sittenfeld@cincinnati-oh.gov; wendell.young@cincinnati-oh.gov; jan-michele.kearney@cincinnati-oh.gov; betsy.sundermann@cincinnati-oh.gov;
