We have received several requests from seniors interested in completing their senior project by being part of the rebuild of Fort Natomas. We appreciate your service and willingness to be part of such a special community project.
Before we begin on the build, we would like to know what Fort Natomas means to you (used to play there, went to a birthday party, took little sister/brother, worked on last build, haven’t played on it but will after I help build it, etc.). Please share what you hope to get out of the experience by volunteering your time and working on the rebuild of the playground. Please submit a one page essay on what Fort Natomas means to you.
So that you obtain the fullest experience of rebuilding Fort Natomas and see what is involved in making this rebuild a reality, you will complete service hours in several areas. You will need to assist the RFN Core team in a variety of tasks as outlined below. If for some reason you are unable to work on an item listed below, please explain in writing and provide an alternative to what you are able to do.
