Volunteer at Mass Registration (plus, article on us in Le Devoir)

President Karen sends an APB...

Hello, Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! We have a couple little jobs that need doing by some intrepid members...

1) Le Devoir published a great article about our greenhouse and Jim Little's in a recent edition - Jardiner sous le soleil de minuit by Hélène Buzzetti. A volunteer, David Rochette, did a French to English written translation of it for our members, merci! (http://www.ledevoir.com/2009/08/20/263496.html) Translation at http://janiceseto.livejournal.com/3757.html




2) Mass Registration event this year on Sept. 12 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. (set-up at 10:30 a.m.) at Cadet Hall - we have a table again. Need YOU to volunteer. We will be passing on information, showcasing some greenery and letting people know how they can get involved. If anyone thinks they can spare some time sitting at the booth, would be appreciated. Doesn't have to be the whole thing, and could just be to help set up.

Please let me know if you can volunteer your time for either of these!

Cheers,

Karen (iqaluitgreenhouse@yahoo.ca)
