Volunteer

Athol runs on a small staff — and a lot of volunteer and community service help.

With only two or three full-time positions, the city depends on volunteers.

This fall, about 16 volunteers — mostly from the American Legion family — spent roughly 65 hours cleaning up Mountainview Cemetery.
