VOLUNTEERS - OUR HEROES!
Thanks to the volunteers who have helped in community service activities, outreach programs, displays, public education, and various Arts for All events, etc. These members are helping to assure the future of our organization.
In addition to external activities, many members volunteer within WWPS to present programs, host activities, support meetings, serve on committees, etc. It may not be possible to list everyone who helps internally within the organization, but without all the volunteer effort, WWPS would not exist. Thanks to all.
