Announcements from Department

Have you been volunteering?

​Your Dept Volunteer Rep kindly requests that you submit your volunteer hours for each month.  Every report needs to be turned in by the fifth day of the next month.  This ensures  enough time to submit your monthly report to Dept and National.  To keep the process simple, just send the number of hours along with a very brief explanation of your activities.  Thank you for all you do!
