Volunteer News - November 29, 2012

Welcome to the inaugural blog for Mountainaire Avian Rescue (MARS) volunteers (and those who are thinking about volunteering). I'll continue to send notices about upcoming events and news for volunteers through the distribution list, and I'll also be using the blog to communicate details, and get your feedback.

Art Show December 8th at Whyte's Framing
MARS needs two volunteers to work at the Art Sale at Whyte's Framing from 12:00 to 4:00 pm on Saturday December 8th.

The volunteers will be setting up the MARS display and packing everything up at the end of the sale. Whyte's framing is at 1225 Lazo Road in Comox.

If you are available, please send Allison a note at gak@shaw.ca.

Fund Raising Meeting
There will be a fund raising meeting Monday December 3rd at MARS (6:00 pm).
Eagle fest coordination will be one of the key topics for discussion.

Crafty MARS
Many thanks to the volunteers who helped out with the Merville Hall and Royston Christmas Craft Fairs. Thanks to you, we made over $2,500 last weekend.


WhenToHelp.com
For those volunteers who valiantly waded into the WhenToHelp.com site, thank you for your assistance. Given the complexity of the WhenToHelp site, and the small fraction we were able to employ, we decided not to continue using WhenToHelp.com.


Confidentiality Policy
MARS is in the process of ratifying an updated confidentiality policy. Stay tuned for more information.


Eagle Fest
One of our biggest public events is coming up on February 23rd, 2013. If you are available to help, before or during Eagle Fest please contact Allison at gak@shaw.ca.
