Sutherlin Middle School student Mason Fulton enjoyed helping out at the Sutherlin Visitors Center to earn volunteer hours for his Leadership class.
This courteous young man was welcomed with open arms by the three volunteers he worked with. Connie Russell and Judith Huntley are part of the Beta Eta Sorority that has been so great about keeping our Visitors Center opened on Saturdays. Also pictured is Betty Scheib our lovely Monday volunteer.
ALL OF OUR VOLUNTEERS are so appreciated for sharing their sparkle and kindness.
Volunteers and Leadership Go Together!
