Improve Your Backyard (IYB)

Improve Your Backyard (IYB) and the community by stepping out and simply enjoy the experience of getting to know the outdoors.

Volunteers are the heart of our organization.  They help keep Nevada’s urban trials, community landscapes and local parks beautiful and our volunteer programs active.  More importantly, they share their skills, contribute their time, and enhance our lives.

Your volunteer time and contributions always make a difference.

Individuals and groups share their talents and expertise by participating in events and other community participation programs, afterschool programs, our annual “Get Outdoors Nevada Day” event, and numerous other daily activities and special events.
