hello:

volunteers needed to assist at the ana convention. i will be helping to make this event a success and networking with my e-mail friends from across the usa. nonmembers welcome to come and help, add their two cents and find out about the running of ana via our delegates meetings.

many hands make lite work. you do not need to pay for the convention if volunteering 4 hours a day and may participate in educational sessions (no ceu's will be awarded) later that day.

please consider joining me.

as the hosting constituent member association, the pennsylvania state nurses association (psna) will play an integral role in the success of the convention. one of the largest areas in which psna is responsible is volunteers; nearly 200 are needed to assist in a variety of ways. volunteeractivities may include:

* assembling registration packets (pre-convention)

* working as a monitor for continuing education sessions

* assisting with the house of delegates sessions

* providing support at the convention registration table

* working at the psna exhibit booth

* helping ana staff in various ways as needs arise

this is an exciting opportunity for new or long time members, students, or nonmember nurses who are interested in learning more about ana and would like to network with other nursing professionals. incentives for volunteers will be offered based on the number of hours worked and will include rebates on convention registration, goodie bags, free gifts and more. you will have fun, we promise!

to lend a hand visit the psna web site and submit the volunteer consent-to-serve form. the information on this form will be added to a volunteer database that will meet the needs of the convention. an orientation for volunteers has been planned for june 11 from 10 am - 12 noon. the orientation is not mandatory, but is recommended for all who can

attend.
