Volunteer of the Month

Orrick

Orrick Evans is our Volunteer of the Month!

Orrick Evans, a member of the Astoria High School Class of 2027, chose to complete his senior project with the Astoria Parks & Recreation Department by organizing a fantastic summer pickleball tournament at Lindstrom Park.
From start to finish, Orrick demonstrated outstanding leadership, organization, and enthusiasm. He coordinated tournament operations, welcomed participants with a positive attitude, and helped create a fun and memorable experience for everyone involved. In preparation for the event, Orrick secured generous prize donations from local businesses, designed promotional flyers, and worked hard to spread the word throughout our community.

We are incredibly grateful for Orrick's dedication and the time he invested in making this event a success. We always enjoy partnering with students on senior projects that make a meaningful impact in our community, and Orrick's project is a wonderful example of that.

THANK YOU ORRICK!
