The
SBTJS continues to face challenges. If you want to help, grab
a Board member and tell them you want to get involved .
Volunteers are always welcome; you don't need to sign up. Just
jump in and help where you see a gap. Can you take photos or
help with the sound or raffle? There are still some open
spots on the Board.
