I volunteer my time and services as an artist at least 20 times a yr. It gives me great satisfaction to see a child smile at the art they created. I also give my art talents and art work to charity for auction.
everyone needs to volunteer, if each person did only ONE hr a week, just think how much can get accomplished and how many people we can help!

I volunteer at my son's school in the classroom and on the PTA board as the book fair chairperson. I also was a member of the School Site Council for the past four years. I am also a PTA member-at-large for my daughter's middle school. I have always volunteered for field trips and in the classroom at their preschools.

U.S Coast Guard (Aux.)
Support S.A.R. "SEARCH AND RESCUE" GET LOST !
I love going out on the patrol boat and "LOOKING FOR TROUBLE" !
Look for trouble, and you'll find it, as a kid, I was always in trouble, "Trouble and me" are old friends, and are never very far apart from each other, I want to make sure that I stay on the "GOOD" side of trouble, not the bad side ! Sh-t just happens around me.
