Polk County Parks and Recreation is a phenomenal organization to volunteer for. They have so many fun opportunities. I like how they are done in a day events so I don't have to worry about not being able to make it. I am able to meet a lot of people here in the community. It has aloud me to earn more hours that I need for scholarships. Sometimes you even get free food or t shirts. The people who work here always make sure you are doing well and they offer you many breaks. I will definitely continue to volunteer for this organization. Thank you Polk County Parks and Recreation.

I gives me community service hours that can be used for a Bright Futures scholarship and it looks good for potential colleges/universities.
