Park protection society

The management of familiar parks, which are the "garden" of the local people and is a common property of citizens, requires not only the Yokohama City, where the park is set up, but also the active cooperation of local residents. For this reason, for daily management such as cleaning and weeding of the park, we have formed a volunteer group led by local residents, and have them cooperate. This is the "Park Protection Association".
In Aoba Ward, 196 out of 230 parks have been formed and active, and many of them are supported by the activities of protection associations.

We clean and weed the park, watering trees, and call on manners to park users. Some park protection associations make use of the characteristics of the park to create flower beds to entertain the local people's eyes and work on the forest conservation.

Everyone in the area around the park is a member. There are also places where park protection associations are formed at Neighborhood Associations and elderly people's associations. If you are interested in activities, please contact Aoba Public Works Office.

When a park is created, the city of Yokohama will call on the people living in the vicinity to form a park protection society. We form park protection society by local all of you and have you report to Yokohama-shi. For more information, please contact Aoba Public Works Office.

In addition to protection membership fees, the Park Protection Association provides support, such as providing goods and providing know-how necessary for activities.
