Joanne Kennedy has been a volunteer since the beginning! You might recognize her as the woman behind the headquarters table at the Young Authors Conference, the Creativity Festivals, and STEMLink⁵... Joanne volunteers her time all over the Twin Cities; we are so lucky and grateful that after all these years she still finds time for SBC!
"When I retired Gina said, "Do I have a job for you!" and I have enjoyed every one of them. My favorite volunteer job is being at the Headquarters Table; you get to meet all of the Presenters (and then panic when they are late). SBC is a great organization to volunteer for. It is a great organization to donate to, especially on Give to the Max day. Every event is my favorite; every time I volunteer it is something new."
If you or someone you know is a superstar of an SBC volunteer and should be nominated for a feature in our "Red Shirt" corner, let us know! They will be featured in our April newsletter.
