In need of a good volunteer opportunity? Are you a
Eagle Scout, Boy or Girl Scout, student in need of a senior project or someone else who just wants to be involved? If so, this page was created for you. We have several small projects within our community that we feel would improve our Town while also fulfilling your volunteer needs/requirements. The list below is not limited - if you have a project you want to do for the Town - in particular the Parks and Recreation Department - feel free to contact us to schedule a time to discuss it. We believe in community involvement and anything we can do to help our youth succeed. For more information or questions, please call
