VOLunteer Community

• Being a resident at Tellico Village has a wide
  variety of perks. One perk is being close to the
  University of Tennessee, home of the VOL nation.
  Yes, VOL does stand for a season where everyone
  bleeds orange and finds community at tailgates
  and football games BUT Vol also stands for
  volunteer. Something our community here at
  Tellico Village also holds dear.
• Retirement calls for many lifestyle changes and
  new hobbies, but what is better than a hobby that
  serves a larger purpose? Our community has a
  number of volunteer opportunities that will allow
  you the opportunity to do just that!

  5,000 residents with many in their later years.
  With this, an emphasis for a neighborhood need
  has risen and the community has answered STAY

  neighbors help fellow neighbors stay in their
  homes as they age. Programs include grocery
  shopping, ride sharing, home maintenance and
  information / educational opportunities.
• COPs, Citizens Observer Patrol This group
  assists law enforcement by acting as an extra set
  of eyes and ears for Village patrol. They
  report suspicious behavior, potential crimes or

  from their home for extensive periods.
