The mission of the Parks and Recreation Department is to provide and protect outstanding natural, scenic, cultural, historic and recreational sites for the enjoyment and education of present and future generations.

Volunteers are a crucial component of Oregon Parks and Recreation Department's workforce. Public safety, visitor information, maintenance, and store sales are all measurably better because of their involvement. They extend the interpretive and educational porgrams in the parks. Their worth is not measured in just dollars and cents, which is significant, but in visitor satisfaction, and the pride and joy they give and receive.
