Be a local hero: volunteer!
By Aaron Pope
Many residents have expressed interest in offering their services to the city, and volunteering is a great way for residents to actively participate in local government. By volunteering, you can help make the beach a safer, cleaner, and better place to live. If you are interested in participating in any of the programs listed below, please contact the appropriate Department Head:
Building and Zoning is seeking volunteers for Code Enforcement activities. The primary focus will be monitoring the island for violations of trash ordinances and right of way encroachments. Duties will include patrolling the island, documenting violations, and initial notification of property owners. The estimated time per week is 8 hours. For more info or to volunteer, contact Aaron Pope at 588-2447 ext 1839, or email apope@cityoffollybeach.com.
Beach Management Patrol is seeking volunteers to help keep our beach clean and act as ambassadors to our residents and visitors. Duties will include walkover cleaning, beach litter pickup, and monitoring. If you are a citizen who already patrols the beach in your spare time, please contact us so we can coordinate our efforts with those of you who already act as stewards of the beach. The time commitment per week will vary. For more info or to volunteer, contact City Administrator Toni Connor-Rooks at 708-9474, or email tconnor@cityoffollybeach.com.
