March 16, 2004Busy, busy dayBusy, busy day. We have a supervisors' meeting every Tuesday morning. The various components of the agency each have one person who oversees the program, and they all answer either to the Program Coordinator or the Executive Director - the Program Coordinator answers to the E.D. The E.D., by the way, answers to the Board of Directors. It is much like any non-profit organizational chart. We all come together on Tuesdays to share what is going on with our programs - and to touch base with each other as we are spread out over three buildings. It is almost always a good networking time. We laugh a lot, but we get a lot accomplished also. After the meeting this morning I began getting information together for our upcoming workshop. Letters and schedules have to be sent out to prospective volunteers and to various agencies in the area. Suddenly I looked up and it was time for lunch. A morning gone by quickly. After lunch our newsletter was delivered by the printer and I set to work collating an insert and folding. Tomorrow I will finish that and get it ready to mail out on Thursday. There you have it - a day in the life of a busy volunteer coordinator. ;-) And, how was your day? The Ladybug has some cute pictures up of the kiddos. I love the one she got of Miss Kinzie this morning. Little stinker tossed all of her toys out onto the floor and crawled into her toy-tub with her stuffed bunny and fell asleep. That is where mama found her this morning. Cute picture. Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday. We are slogging into spring in Alaska. There are even patches of gravel on our road today!! Yes, that is a cause for celebration. It won't be long . . . The side roads, of course, are the last to melt off and I still have a ton of snow in the front yard that needs to go away. But, the main streets are clearing up at a steady clip, and the sun is causing major damage to the remaining snow berms. YAHOO!!! Spring in Kenai!!!

momma moosie I will help you push the motorcycle ou onto the pavement if you would like an early ride.... LOL Posted by: Ladybug at March 17, 2004 08:22 AMI work for a non-profit as well and I love it! I'm only a lowly administrative assistant for the smallest program in the agency, but what we do is important. The best part is I get to be creative by publishing our Newsletter (OUR printer also collates when necessary AND folds, all I have to do is label and sort for bulk mailing), and creating various Powerpoint presentations. I love non-profits because the whole working atmosphere is so much different than for-profit companies. Posted by: Heather at March 17, 2004 04:57 PM;-)) hi Heather. Normally our printer does the collating and folding also, but we had a special insert this time and chose to do it in-house so I ended up doing it. Next time it is all his. ;-)) you'll have to writer me privately and share what you do. okay? |
