Volunteer Opportunities
The Clarksville Parks & Recreation Department is supported through the kindness of local volunteers. We are always looking for individuals interested in serving their community. If you are interested in any of the opportunities below, contact Ken Conklin at 812-283-5313.
You must be at least 16 years old to volunteer.
Green Thumb Club
• Show your support and help us keep our parks looking great by becoming a Green Thumb Club volunteer. These volunteers will assist us in maintaining and planting flower beds, caring for our wooded areas, and maintaining the condition of local plant life in our parks.
Special Events Crew
• This is a perfect opportunity for local teens and college students, but anyone is welcome. Throughout the year the Clarksville Parks Department hosts several events including our Fall Harvest Hayride, Easter Egg Hunt, Family Campout, Gobbler Games, and MORE! Duties can range from working a registration/welcome table and helping with set-up and tear-down, to running an activity or working a concession area.
Marketing Masters
• This is another great opportunity for area teens or college students. Do you have an interest in marketing? During the year, we set up marketing booths at dozens of community and schools events. We use these events to market our programs, while offering an activity such as our wiggle cars, bounce house, and mobile arcade basketball game. As a Marketing Master volunteer, you will help us spread the word about all the great programs the Clarksville Parks and Recreation Department has to offer. You may learn something about marketing, and even have a little fun in the process. This experience would look great on a resume or college application!
Office Helpers
• A great opportunity for retirees. If you are looking to help your community, but you are more suited for indoor/less strenuous work, this is perfect for you. Duties can range from answering phones, stuffing envelopes, filing, making copies, and even assisting customers at our service window.
