Parks & Recreation: Shute Park Aquatic Center

Shute Park Aquatic & Recreation Center (SHARC) is a vibrant community hub that promotes health, wellness, and recreation for individuals of all ages. As a part of Hillsboro Parks & Recreation, SHARC offers year-round access to fitness, swimming, and enrichment activities in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Volunteers play a vital role in supporting our mission to foster a healthy, active community by contributing their time, energy, and enthusiasm.

We offer ongoing volunteer opportunities perfect for those seeking a regular commitment. Volunteers at SHARC assist with a variety of tasks, including welcoming guests, helping with recreational programs and special events, preparing program materials, and supporting staff in creating a safe and engaging space for all. Volunteering at SHARC is a great fit for those who enjoy working with people, staying active, and being part of a dynamic team.

To learn more and become a volunteer, sign up for a volunteer information/orientation session by visiting: Volunteer Information/Orientation Session.

Volunteer orientations are mandatory for all ongoing volunteers. During the orientation, we will review responsibilities, scheduling, dress code, code of conduct, opportunities, and more. A criminal background check is also required and must be completed prior to your first volunteer shift.
