We could sure use your help with the youth classes in Portland.

If you have an interest in working with youth, wee need more assistants.
This is a generous contribution of times since youth volunteers will miss demonstrations. A smile on face and the satisfaction of helping is all you get in return.

Please go to http://hockenbery.net/volform.htm
complete a web form. the submit e-mails this to Paul Rasmussen who is this years volunteer Volunteer Coordinator. Please hit submit only once as each time sends an e-mail.

Youth assistant: The Symposium will include a youth class room for 25 students. We will have 8 class sessions two of 3 hour length and 6 that are 90 to 110 minutes long.
The instructors would like to have 10 to 12 assistant in each session. The duties correspond to the assistants experience and confidence. It can be as simple as calling the instructor to help a student that needs a little extra help to actually guiding the student directly.
Seeing a kid’s eyes light up with wonder and accomplishment is quite a reward.

Thanks,
Al
