Our mission is to provide exceptional park and recreation services that enhance the livability of our community and the lives of the people we serve.
Be a Willamalane volunteer! Helping others feels good and helps you feel good about yourself. Willamalane can work with you to provide rewarding experiences, opportunities to utilize your talents, or provide training to help you serve your community.
You can provide assistance with office support, event planning and support services, committee work, or teaching classes. Call and find out how you can have fun being a part of life at Willamalane.
There are tremendous benefits to being a Willamalane volunteer - benefits to the community as well as benefits to the volunteers.
Volunteer service is not dependent upon how much "stuff" you possess, but dependent upon how much "stuff" you have inside you.
In addition to the benefits realized by the community, the volunteers benefit as well. Many volunteers confide that they were inspired by the opportunity to give, but received far more than they gave. We believe this is the true gift of volunteer service.
