What are two great words that both begin with the
letter 'V'? That's right! Volunteer and Vacation. And what do these two
words have in common? Why, it's all the rage this summer, dedicating a
portion of your vacation to volunteer service! Many service
opportunities are available at PCEI, and by participating you're
helping restore our environment. What better way to spend your summer
days?
Both indoor and outdoor opportunities are available for all ages and
any skill level. Please contact me
with questions and interest! And thanks to all of our amazing
volunteers who have contributed so much this summer! You are VERY
appreciated.
