Lowe's 100 Hometowns: Award Winner

The Friends of Pocahontas State Park is thrilled to be one of the 100 impact projects that are the cornerstone of 100 Hometowns, an initiative to celebrate Lowe’s centennial. Lowe’s received more than 2,200 submissions to the 100 Hometowns program, which invited people across the country to nominate their hometown projects in need. The 100 Hometowns program will complete 100 projects across 37 states that rebuild areas reeling from natural disasters, repair critical housing, restore beloved community centers, and revive green spaces. The 100 Hometowns projects span urban, rural and suburban communities and will benefit an array of community members, from toddlers, teens and seniors to veterans, small business owners, students, and more. Details of every 100 Hometowns project and their progress can be found at the 100 Hometowns landing page and at #100Hometowns on social media.

CCC Group Cabin Stabilization: 2021 Cabin Work Week Preparation:

A state park seeks assistance in maintaining 80+-year-old cabins within the park that are listed on the National Historic Registry. This project will supplement volunteer efforts from a Youth Conservation Corps project and a Cabin Work Week with staining, painting and making repairs to the cabins

Lend A Hand:

We are looking for volunteers to assist us with this project.  There are several public work days for anyone to sign up to help us.  If you have a group that is interested in working on this project, we will do our best to find a mutually agreeable date.  Groups can make arrangements by contacting: 
​Volunteer Coordinator
804-796-4484
pocahontasvolunteer@dcr.virginia.gov

​
Cabin Work Days are available for signing up through Meet Up.  They are scheduled for:
  • May 22nd
  • June 26th
  • July 24th
  • August 28th
  • September 25th, which is National Public Lands Day
  • October 25-29, join us for a day or the week

Cabin Work Week 2021

This award was given to help us prepare for Cabin Work Week 2021.  Cabin Work Week needs volunteers to help with carpentry, painting, roofing, screening, etc.  We can accommodate individuals at any skill level.  All anyone needs is a desire to be part of a team that is saving these historic cabins so that the youth groups that rely on them as a key component of their programs can count on them to help develop youth for another 80+ years.

Cabin Work Week volunteers that live in the local area join us on a days that accommodate their schedules while those that come from out of the area are offered a complimentary campsite in exchange for 1 or 2 weeks of assistance.  You can sign up for Cabin Work Week by contacting our Volunteer Coordinator (see above).
