We put our volunteer’s talents to great use. It takes all kinds of people to get our events and activities staffed. There is literally something for everyone and not all volunteer commitments are created equal; some require a few hours, while others are a monthly commitment of 2-15 hours. As a volunteer you have the opportunity to hone your leadership skills, work closely with people with similar interests and make a difference.
