RO STAFF VOLUNTEERS NEEDED- B308
A couple of volunteers from the B308 office are needed to serve on the Emergency Evac team. Lesley and Julie were the contacts and we both are now in B306. Julie/Lesley will continue in B306.It would be nice to have someone from the front of B308 and someone in the back that would scan each office, put an “Evacuated” sign on the door, and take roll after following people out the door in the case of an emergency. What think, B308ers? Who is game? Please let Julie Meier know!
