Field Day helps organize Team events called Field Trips. Field Trips are only available for Teams of volunteers to view and register for.
On Field Day, you can discover local nonprofits and volunteer opportunities. View a full activity catalog and use filters or browse activities by nonprofit to find the perfect match for your Team.
Teams can view upcoming Field Trips on their homepage and browse volunteer activities to plan Field Trips around.
