Volunteers Needed
MOAC is a 100% volunteer organization. Things only happen if people step up to do them. MOAC needs:
Keeper Of The Inventory - MOAC doesn't own much but we need someone to keep what we do have under control. Mostly consumables we use at events (paper products, plastic silverware, etc).

Please email board@moac.org if you are interested in helping out. MOAC only works because volunteers decide to make it happen!
