A big focus of OKC is volunteering at events that support and grow our league and the larger kickball community. For many of these events, the league receives funds back from the event organization as a result of our participation. Each OKC team is required to complete 6 credits of volunteer work by the end of the season. Each event official OKC volunteer shift is typically one credit. They're listed below. There are also opportunities to volunteer at the field each week. There will be prizes for the team and individual with the most credits at the end of the season.
Please also notify the OKC Volunteer Coordinator Ashley Moreno once you have signed up, so we can track you and your team's OKC volunteer credits for the year. Please make sure that you attend any shift that you sign up for, as you are representing OKC. If you should need to cancel any shift that you have signed up for, please notify us as far in advance as possible.

Additional Volunteering Ideas and Potential Credit
If you have an idea for a volunteer event that is not an official OKC event listed below, but would like to involve OKC, please email oregonkickball.volunteer@gmail.com. In general, we look for three things in volunteer hours for OKC:
- The activity benefits OKC financially. That is, the charity or non-profit makes a donation to OKC for our involvement. In that sense, it's also volunteering for our league to help keep fees low and fund our social activities. (Example events: Sunday Parkways, Shamrock Run, can collection, etc.)
- It advances or promotes kickball as an activity and sport here in our area. (Example event: Starlight reffing)
- It is a pre-approved event that brings people in our OKC community together at the same event (>4 or so at least) for a non-profit cause in-keeping with OKC values. Event participation should be offered to the rest of the league wherever possible.
