Volunteer Hours

As you all know, we document our volunteer hours.  Our goal is to teach the skill of bobbin lace-making to anyone who has an interest in it.  Please take time to estimate the number of hours you have spent towards our goal.  See the By-Laws for qualifying hours and report yours to Debbie Stone at dlstone@swbell.net as soon as possible. 

**If you went to the IOLI Convention in Nashville, please remember to count those hours which include classes, travel, prep and volunteer hours!**
