Volunteer Registration has opened. There are several short duration jobs happening during the public viewing time. Please register for one. Middle school students will continue to be split by school into either session 1 or 2. As soon as you add projects select your preferred session. If you have no preference, know I will assign based on balancing category numbers and can keep schools together who are sharing transportation.
