SALEM — The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is seeking volunteers for three positions on the Oregon Outdoor Recreation Committee.

The positions include a member to represent the interests of a historically underrepresented community or a representative from Tribal Government, one representative for counties west of the Cascades, and one representative for counties east of the Cascades.

The OORC evaluates grant proposals for public outdoor recreation projects seeking funding assistance from the Land and Water Conservation Fund Grant Program. Committee members serve four-year terms and may be eligible to serve a second term. The OORC generally meets once a year, virtually or at locations throughout the state.

Those interested in serving must submit a committee interest form by Monday, Nov. 27. The form is available at shorturl.at/wBMY5.
