4. Tutoring at PHS --- Volunteers are needed to help out in algebra, geometry, chemistry, biology, physics. It's one hour a week on a school night somewhere in the 5-8 PM timeframe and meet at the Parkersburg Library in Vienna. If you are willing to help, please contact Donna Siebold email: donna.siebold-1@usa.dupont.com or 304-863-4528

5. Parkersburg Homecoming August, 2002 Fundraising Opportunity. The CSX lot needs parking assistance for Homecoming. It's the 20th Anniversary of the event in Pburg. This is a good opportunity for easy fundraising, but we need people to help out with taking money at one of the local parking lots. We have estimated roughly 33 hours where at least a couple people man the lots. LM is not big enough to take on this type of event, but we thought it would be a good opportunity to share the proceeds with another non-profit organization.. Scott will talk to Jeff about the Fire Dept. to see if they're interested, and we have also thought about another Fire Dept. as well as PSHS Band Boosters. Please let me know if you know of group that might be willing to help out. We need to tell Jenny Keup ASAP.6. I turned in the DuPont Volunteer Recognition Form for Local Motives to potentially win $1000 in August.
