Community Involvement


There are a number of ways for people of all ages to get involved in Lake Oswego, whether as a volunteer, board or commission member, or elected official. Some opportunities with the City include helping at the Library, Adult Community Center, Luscher Farm, Farmers’ Market or with other special events. There are also regular ivy pulls, native plantings, and habitat restoration projects going on in parks and open spaces. Those looking to fulfill requirements for Eagle Scout rank, school projects or community service hours are always welcomed. Residents are encouraged to get involved with the many active neighborhood associations around town.
