Volunteers Needed…

NCRA needs volunteers for a very wide variety of tasks. Some are quick and easy while others are complex with a steep but satisfying learning curves.

For example, the Activities Committee needs tour and meeting location suggestions, help with event set-up, check-in and clean-up, as well as pre event managers for food orders. Also, the Communications Committee needs reporters, photographers, writers and editorial assistants, as well as people willing to maintain the press list and conduct media follow-up and help maintain the website. Interested? use the Contact page to send us a “Volunteer Available” note.
