Volunteer Opportunities

Greetings, Colleagues in Retirement!

I trust that the month of September has been a pleasant one for you as we wend our way down to shorter daylight hours and lessening visitors with the beginning of the school year.

Please find attached, two documents from Doug Edgar, 1st Vice-President of the BCRTA, for your interest and possible involvement. The BCRTA is constructing a Review Committee to review its organizational structure and of course, as a consequence, to see how the BCRTA can better meet the needs of its membership. The Review Committee will consist of 7 BCRTA members who will serve for two years. Please give some thought as to whether or not serving on the Review Committee would be something that would interest you.

Just a reminder:
The PQRTA is still in need of a Historian Chairperson and a Programme Chairperson. Please contact me at 250.752.8824 or tvdyer@shaw.ca if you would like to help the PQRTA out with either of these positions. Your help would be most appreciated by your Executive and your fellow members.

As always, your PQRTA Executive realizes that there is no lack of volunteer opportunities available for retirees and that most PQRTA members are hard working volunteers for a number of worthwhile projects. For your involvement in whatever volunteer activity interests you, the PQRTA is most grateful for your contribution to helping make things better.

Wishing you all a lovely Indian Summer!

Valerie Dyer,
2009-10 PQRTA President
