VOLUNTEER POSITIONS

Your Current Volunteers

 

The Guild is entirely made up of volunteers and for it to be successful we need your involvement. We hope to have a guild member step up for the year, and if you are unable to fulfill your duties at a meeting, then ask a friend to step in for you!! It is a great way to meet new friends and to help us make the Guild an enjoyable event. Please feel free to speak with any guild member currently holding a volunteer position.  If you are interested in helping to shape the Langley Quilters' Guild then please consider putting your name forward for one of the many volunteer positions.
