This roster details a busy series of local outreach events for May 2026, next one is a Public Works Open House on Saturday, May 16, running from mid-morning to early afternoon.

Later in the month, the focus shifts to a weekday presentation on May 21 for a community group in Allen. This fully staffed slot features a presentation on Pocket Prairies, with volunteers arriving early to manage the table setup and assist with the event.

The month wraps up on the evening of Saturday, May 30, with a community mothing event at a local park. A volunteer is currently slated to monitor the table, which wraps up as darkness falls, leaving one shift still available for the night.
