We are in urgent need of volunteers.  Most of our volunteers have been with us for many years and have given freely of their time and talents, but Father Time is making it necessary for them to move on.  We need a few good souls who are willing to do some light office work and/or light housekeeping to keep the house in a good state.  Anyone interested, man or woman, please contact any of the board members, call and leave a message on our answering machine, or contact us by e-mail at PCHS61327@Yahoo.com.
