Volunteer with LARPD
The Livermore Area Recreation and Park District is actively seeking volunteers to assist with our programs, services, and community special events. By volunteering and donating your time to the District, you are strengthening our community by helping people within our programs and services and enriching their lives, as well as creating strong bonds and friendships within the community. To volunteer with the District, fill out the Volunteer Application and email it or drop it off to the Robert Livermore Community Center during business hours. Volunteers who are 18 years and older will be required to complete a fingerprint clearance prior to volunteering with the District. All volunteers will be required to attend a Volunteer Orientation and training session. Volunteer opportunities and hours vary and are determined on District need.

Kiosk volunteers welcome visitors to Sycamore Grove Park, make changes as needed for the parking machine, sell annual parking passes, keep a tally of how many visitors enter the park, and answer questions from the public. Volunteers are trained to use a communications radio to advise rangers of any problems they become aware of. Ideal kiosk volunteers are folks who already have familiarity with Sycamore Grove Park and can commit to working at least one 2 to 4 hour shift most months of the year. Volunteers who can work multiple shifts a month are highly desired. Those interested in becoming kiosk volunteers will join a ranger for a one-to-two hour training session and then will join an experienced kiosk volunteer for their first few shifts. Note: This opportunity is on hold during COVID-19 but please email if you're interested once restrictions lift.
