We have several parks in Monterey County and they all depend on volunteers: ~ Lake San Antonio ~ San Lorenzo Park ~ Laguna Seca Recreation Area ~ Toro Park ~ Jacks Peak Park ~ Manzanita Park ~ Royal Oak Park Live On-Site Volunteers The Monterey County Parks Department offers live-on volunteer opportunities for RVing individuals and couples who wish to donate their time and talent to the parks system.
