Thank you for volunteering your time and energy on a Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) property. We're happy to have you with us and hope the time you spend will be rewarding. Please read the disclaimer below before registering. . .

 

We have an excellent safety record for our volunteer program. We don’t anticipate that you’ll be involved in an accident, but it's important to understand the extent to which our volunteer program is covered by the City of Portland insurance. We want you to be aware of any potential risks involved with the tasks you have selected and use good judgement in performing those tasks.

 

As a volunteer, you are NOT covered by the City of Portland’s Workers Compensation program. You are urged to have you own health insurance in the event that you are injured while performing your volunteer duties.

 

You ARE covered by the City’s General Liability Fund. This will protect you in the event of property damage or accidental injury to the public as a result of your volunteer duties assigned by Portland Parks & Recreation.

We will honor your request. PP&R reserves the right, and may give permission to the media to photograph participants at all our facilities and properties. Please be aware that these photos are for promotional purposes and may be used in future publications and media communications in any format. By participating in PP&R programs, you consent to the taking and publication of your photograph for these purposes.
