NOVAA (Northwest Oregon Volunteer Administrators Association) March Meeting- Recognizing Volunteers on a Shoestring Budget

I hope you can join us on March 18th for this month's meeting on Recognizing and Appreciating our volunteers on a shoestring budget.  I am very pleased to announce that Nancy Gaston will be presenting on some of the most effective volunteer recognition that costs practically nothing.  She'll help us explore interactive ways how to match volunteer motivation with effective recognition, and learn how one size doesn't fit all. Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral (located in Portland at 147 NW 19th Avenue, unless otherwise indicated).  A large parking lot is available across the street from the cathedral, and a small amount of parking is available just south of the cathedral.  The meeting will take place in Kempton Hall, which is the first door on the left after entering through the main gate on 19th Avenue.  Lunch is not provided, but we encourage you to bring your own meal.  Members will arrive and sign in between noon and 12:15pm. Please remember that non-members are allowed to attend two NOVAA meetings free of charge before committing to membership. Visit www.novaa.org for more information, or contact me at mowens@joyrx.org or 503-313-0306. Thank you so much and I look forward to seeing you all there! Cheers, Melissa Owens NOVAA Program Chair Volunteer Program Coordinator/Children's Cancer Association
