Volunteer
Heart for Service, Passion for Parks
Volunteers play a vital role in bringing Charleston County Parks and Recreation programs, events, and spaces to life. Whether you are looking to give back, meet new people, enjoy unique experiences in your county parks, or become more connected to your community, volunteering is a meaningful way to get involved. We are always excited to welcome new volunteers and offer opportunities to serve, enjoy volunteer appreciation events, and earn a reciprocal pass to participating area attractions when you complete more than 35 hours of service each year.

Adopt a Charleston County Boat Landing!
The Charleston County Park & Recreation Commission maintains boat landings throughout the county that offer recreational access for boaters, paddlers, and others. To ensure clean and beautiful waterways are available to the public, it is important to make sure fishing line and other trash do not foul propellers, entangle swimmers, or kill wildlife.
By adopting a landing and helping us keep it clean, you will be protecting families and wildlife, not only near the boat landing, but throughout the area’s marshes and beaches.
Apart from the satisfaction of knowing you are protecting families, sea turtles, dolphins, seabirds, and others by making your landing clean and safe, your group will complete a worthwhile project as a team in a beautiful location. Your stewardship efforts will be recognized on a sign at the landing and on our website.
To get started, rally your church, business, youth group, school, or other organization and submit the form! Our Volunteer Coordinator will contact you soon.Boat Landings

Holiday Festival of Lights Volunteer Magic!
"Hi there, On Monday November 17, a few volunteers from Church Coastal Community brought some folks from Joseph Floyd Manor and Brighton Place to the Holiday lights. Both places are low income housing with mostly Senior and disabled folks who reside there. They were completely blown away by the park, not just the lights, and none of the 15 people had ever been to the park at any time! Your staff was very accommodating, even letting us enter and park early so our folks could go to the bathroom. We go through the lights every year, however seeing them through the eyes of a first timer is very heartwarming. Keep up the great work. Thank you."
