The annual "Yosemite Facelift" is a volunteer-based, park wide litter/trash removal event corresponding with National Public Lands Day. The project is sponsored by the Yosemite Climbing Association (YCA), a non-profit organization. This will be the 6th Annual Yosemite Facelift. First initiated in 2003 by the Yosemite climbing community, the Facelift has grown into a hugely successful, family oriented, park-wide annual event that is supported by park operations.
The project proposal is comprised of two parts: (1) park wide trash removal, and (2) special projects. Park-wide trash removal describes the type and extent of activities that the majority of event volunteers will participate in, while the special projects will have assigned National Park Service (NPS) personnel supervising activities and will require more intensive coordination. This year's Facelift will have even more educational components to encourage volunteer stewardship and resource protection both in National Parks and in the volunteer's home areas. The check-in registration process will be consistent for all volunteers. Each volunteer must sign-up each day worked at the event registration center located in front of the Yosemite Valley Visitor Center. The registration center will be open from 8am to 5pm each day of the event.
