Volunteers in Parks (VIP): Rock Creek Parks’s paid staff is supplemented through the "Volunteers in Parks" (VIP) program which provides volunteers to all park divisions. In FY 2008 about 3089 volunteers (Volunteers-In-Parks) donated over 15,000 hours to the park. Most of these volunteer hours 10,700 were for interpretive programs and the rest were distributed among the Administration, Maintenance, Cultural Resources, and Natural Resources Divisions. Volunteers are recruited through word of mouth, local partner organizations and publications, and National Park Service websites.
