VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

March 28, 2008

Dear Troy-Hayner Cultural Center Supporters,

We are extremely excited about this exhibit. We are doing major publicity throughout the state and expect a large turn-out of visitors.

Would you be willing to help Hayner?

The exhibit will be five large kiosks and a few models on tables. One kiosk is a replica of the front of a covered bridge. It is very realistic, but unfortunately too large to fit in our wonderful historical home. So the exhibit will be in the Art Studio. For security purposes, there must be a Hayner staff member or volunteer in the studio whenever there are guests. Hence, the Hayner is in need of people who are willing to be at a desk in the Art Studio during our open hours to greet guests, answer questions and provide directions.

A work schedule will be set up from Sunday, May 4 through Sunday June 29. The Hayner hours are Monday - Thursdays 7:00-9:00 p.m., Tuesday - Saturday 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., and Sunday from 1:00-5:00 p.m. If you could donate any time during our exhibit, please contact Betty Bryant or me to arrange times to volunteer.

This is a great way to give back to the Hayner and all it provides to the community. So, please ask your friends, neighbors and coworkers to help. We are going to need a lot of volunteers.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Nancy Rafferty
Exhibit Coordinator
Troy-Hayner Cultural Center
