Volunteers
In Tigard there is no "typical" volunteer or "typical" volunteer job. Individuals,
family members and neighbors, employee groups, alumni associations and scout troops
volunteer. Their ages span seven decades. They perform a range of unusual tasks for
which the city is very thankful.
For example, volunteers operate TV cameras to bring City Council meetings to the
community, serve on committees, facilitate community meetings, and take police vehicles
through DEQ. An individual may contribute a few hours at a one-day event in the parks
or several hundred hours in the Police Department as a reserve officer.
In the library, volunteers shelve books,
repair damaged books, repair videotapes and teach computer classes, to name a few of their
activities.
