		June 1, 2004 It's time for a reminder about how to completeyour charge card. Here's a sample of how it should be done. The date, item name and amount should be listed. At the end of a month when you pay your bill, the tax will be added and a staff person should sign off on the card showing that you have paid to date. Use a new card when one is filled up. Remember also to record annex purchases on the clipboard hanging in the tearoom. That allows annex staff to know where their items have gone. Marilyn Potts has been appointed Volunteer Coordinator.
	The two $1,000 scholarships awarded by the Health Center Volunteers were given to these fine high school seniors: Gennaro Avolio-Toly, who will attend USC for a degree in ophthalmology and Allison Ulman, who is going to Gonzaga to study medical sciences. Sales are improving! Tuesday, 5/25 we brought in $2,096.33 in bldg 1 and $1,190.70 in the annex totaling $3.287.03. Thursday, 5/27 we brought in $2,419.91 in bldg 1 and $762.56 in the annex totaling $3,182.47. Saturday, 5/29 we brought in $1,863.60 in bldg 1 and $663.73 in the annex totaling $2,527.33. Thank you to everyone who has responded to the call for help on "open days". Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Memorial Day Work Party: Thanks to all who came to work on the holiday! Good progress was made. Vacation Days: Remember to write your name on the calendar in the tearoom on days when you are expected for a shift, but will be away. It helps if you can also advise your shift head in advance if you will not be there. Welcome to the newest volunteers: Ardythe Van Reeth, Molly Lott, Jo Lethin and Dennis Campbell. Be sure to check out our up and operating Web Site: www.grannysattic.org There is a new list of people who are the clothing rack "critiquers". The list is posted. Yard Sale! - Saturday, June 26 (weather permitting). Thanks to Delores Bryce for staffing the yard sale project. Tell your shopper friends about it. There are boxes and boxes of good things to put out for the next Yard Sale. The mission of the Health Center Volunteers (that's us!), a non-profit organization, is to contribute to health care for residents of Vashon Island by supporting the Vashon Maury Health Services Center and fostering the health-related charitable and educations needs of the community.
