One local place that I can volunteer at that is very close to my house is THPRD. This business holds many events such as races, swim meets, and other community events. They are always looking for volunteers, therefore I am sure that I would be able to find a volunteering opportunity.

Some people who I think would be fun to volunteer with are my dad and some of my close frineds. By volunteering with them, I will be able to help more with the extra set of hands, and it will also make it more fun.
