Editor's Notes

  1. Not for volunteer administrators only, this interactive presentation stresses the teamwork approach to volunteers and projects. Strike the balance between “many hands make light work” and “too many cooks spoil the broth.” Learn what experience has taught us and share what works for you
  2. Approach and recruit comes after organize and often at the same time as schedule.
  3. These students are from the Career Development and Workforce Experience program, Norfolk Public Schools
  4. This Boy Scout troop completed two Eagle Scout projects.
  5. You can’t turn people loose when there is caution tape around!
  6. For two school year groups, we have gone from “What are we going to do with them?” to “You mean they are off for the summer? When will they be back?”
  7. Quietly lose their contact information.
  8. When Norfolk Christian School asked if they could bring the entire 2 nd grade out, we gulped and said yes. Just under 100 students and 25 teachers and parents came. They were wonderful!
  9. I am sorry I don’t have current contact information for Amerigroup.
