GET INVOLVED
Much of the vitality of life in Carrboro is due to the
active involvement of citizens in the community. Volunteers
of all ages regularly
share their talents, skills, and ideas by planning or
assisting with large events, serving on town advisory
boards, or coaching a youth sports team. While some
activities require the contribution of many hours others
call for only a few hours of time. Not only can you
share your talents, you can have fun, make new friends
and discover more about your town.
