Volunteer at County Park Special Events this Spring, Get Free Admission to the Parks!
[CHARLESTON COUNTY] -- If you have a little extra time this spring , you can earn an annual pass that grants access to Charleston County Park and Recreation Commission (CCPRC) facilities! CCPRC is seeking enthusiastic volunteers to work at park special events. Those who complete 30 hours this year will get an official volunteer ID with incredible park and attractions admission privileges.
Volunteers are being recruited for a variety of events, including:
• Lowcountry Cajun Festival at James Island County Park
• Pet Fest at Palmetto Islands County Park
• East Coast Paddlesports and Outdoor Festival at James Island County Park
Volunteer duties range based on needs, but can include:
• Festival setup
• Assistance with event activities
• Beverage sales
• Recycling efforts
Volunteers with CCPRC are not required to fulfill a minimum number of hours. All hours supporting the agency are greatly appreciated. Those individuals serving over 30 hours by the end of June 2013 or December 2013 will receive a PRC Volunteer ID, which is good for one calendar year.
The Volunteer ID has reciprocal pass privileges that allow the recipient and one other person general admission into all of CCPRC parks. Plus, the pass allows the owner and a guest free admission into other select Charleston attractions.
