Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers for the Traffic Island Committee are welcome and needed.   

Your tasks are tailored to your abilities, time available, and times available. You see us out there in venues such as Riley Plaza, or individually helping to maintain a traffic island for a sponsor. You can choose to spend an hour or two a week on the care of an island at your own convenience. We, or you, can recruit a partner if you prefer to share the care. Or you can work with our volunteer groups on a specific day each week. The call goes out, and those who are available show up.

We who volunteer with the Traffic Island Committee derive a great deal of satisfaction from seeing the end result of our efforts - making a public garden look its sparkling best. You will meet a wonderful group of people and help make Salem beautiful at the same time. If you are interested in volunteering or would like more information contact Janelle Rolke at jrolke@salem.com or 978-619-5672.
