Join Lake Mead National Recreation Area staff for the first-ever Love Lake Mead Days celebration! Love Lake Mead Days will unite individuals, families, businesses, and organizations from the local gateway communities to Love Lake Mead together through volunteerism. The multi-day celebration will host a variety of service projects throughout the entire 1.5-million-acre recreation area. There is something for everyone! Lake Mead National Recreation Area invites you to help clean up the park April 19 – 26, 2025 during National Park Week and Love Lake Mead Days.

Lake Mead is hosting a volunteer-driven stewardship event to help the park remove trash, collect native seeds, beautify a campground, and remove graffiti from the park.

Volunteers can assist throughout the week in a variety of park sponsored events. The NPS will provide safety equipment, free entrance to anyone who registers, and light refreshments.

Registration for the volunteer cleanup events is required.
