Volunteering at Cascade River Park

Volunteering may help lower our assessments. Below are some the volunteer opportunities available at Cascade River Park. Each committee reports to a board member. Please contact the office at office@cascaderiverpark.com to get started. There are many ways to volunteer that do not require a long term commitment and bring joy to our community. Quarterly reports presented at Board meetings as needed.

Board Member

We are seeking new board members. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the Cascade River Park Board of Directors changed the policy to allow for video meetings, currently via Zoom. This opens the positions of the Board to a new and broader representation of the membership. Each Board member is asked to participate in four quarterly meetings, the annual meeting and a number of working sessions. Having the names of people who are willing to step up if a current board member needs to make a change in their life, i.e. career, birth, moving away, etc. is helpful. Please contact Tami Randall, the chair of our nominating committee, if interested.

Nominating Committee

Headed up by long time member Richard McGuire and recently taken over by Ms. Tami Randall, volunteers are always needed before voting takes place at the annual meeting. These volunteers would recruit within the membership for nominations to the Board of Directors. They would also participate in gaining volunteers for the Park in general. Two of these positions are nominated by the Board and three are voted upon by the membership.
