The definition of a volunteer is anyone not being paid. We have tried to do this also, but its hard to remember all the things we do at home and away from our history room or brat feeds, etc. I think people would be surprised at how much time they do spend, if acurate records could be kept.
Another thought - if we did keep a record as accurate as possible with names and a general heading as to which project posted, would that encourage others to volunteer or to volunteer more time?
This is probably a very basic question but something I haven't thought about until now. We are going to start having volunteers keep track of their time when working on projects. And I have a question. Who are considered volunteers? All members..non-members...officers..board members..committee chairs???
I would appreciate some ideas from those who have been doing this.
