Due to the forecast of high winds tomorrow, we are canceling our Forest Friday Volunteer event. Hope to see you next week. Stay safe and warm.

@thecityclubny While we are definitely the BEST park we are not the largest. Pelham Bay Park has that honor.

@BronxWX We love your intrepid spirit but Mother Nature is fickle (and ice is notoriously unpredictable). Please don’t walk out onto the lake even if appears to be frozen.

VCPA will be tabling and co-leading a workshop with @BxRiverAlliance at this year’s @bxspeakup on Saturday, February 22nd at @LehmanCollege . Hope to see you there!

VCPA joined our friends @ny4p and the PlayFair Coalition at today’s rally at City Hall to demand more money for our park. @nycmayor continues to insult New Yorkers by constantly slashing funding for our parks which play such a vital role in all of our lives.

@donsteele Cheerleaders are welcomed to apply!

Brrrr! It’s cold out there. 🥶 But couldn’t resist a quick walk in the park to see the beautiful blanket of snow! ❄️ Bundle up and go for a quick walk if you can!

Due to the cold temps this week, we are canceling Woodlawn Wednesdays on 1/22 and Trail Work Thursdays on 1/23. We are going to try to hold this week's Forest Fridays. We will let you know if the weather changes that plan. Stay safe and warm!
