The WRRC is looking for community members to volunteer their time for some upcoming recreation programs and events. 

If you are a student, who needs to complete volunteer hours, or wanting to add volunteer experience to your resume, this is the perfect opportunity for you. 

The WRRC would also love to have the help from adults and seniors, interested in children's programming, arts and craft, sports, or whatever might interest you. Recreation is very diverse, we will find an area that interests you and that connects to your passion and interests.

Please contact the WRRC today to get involved!
