Ever thought of volunteering for the club?
There are many jobs that need doing to make the club run smoothly.
For many of the tasks...no computer skills are required at all. Perfect for newer computer users !
The education committee are always on the lookout for instructors to teach
classes as well as class helpers. The club also needs people who would be willing
to give a talk on a subject at the Monday meetings.
Whether you can lend a few hours helping out at the Christmas party,
keeping the bulletin board updated, assisting in the drop-in help sessions on Mondays...
the club needs your help ! If you have the time,
contact us or any of the volunteers listed on the club volunteers page.
The more hands helping out, the better our club will be !
