Qualifications to be a Helper:

* You must have been taught by me, have good basic electronics, patience & people
skills. I prefer mature, older (12+) helpers. Part of your pay is my training you to be
a leader, come to learn, not for the money! If you are not qualified, ask about being
a part time unpaid volunteer to gain needed experience.

* First priority - Experienced helper from past camps or someone with a car
           that can go for emergency parts (or food).
* Next priority - students from the advanced or Pre-Engr. class or that were
            helpers last year.
* Volunteers age 11+ work to gain experience and be trained, Volunteers that
           work hard will be compensated (paid)!
* Note: Helpers are not allowed to build projects, if you wish to attend a session
           just let me know in advance so I can replace you for that session,
            it will not cost you your job!
* Needed: Up to 4 helpers each week duties include set-up, helping as needed
          and clean-up. Hours 8:00 - 5:30. Arrangements can be made for certian
          times to come in late/leave early
*Send Resumes now! Give positions you would accept (Volunteer, part or full
          time helper) sessions you can come and your qualifications and sessions
          you can work? Pay ($30-50/session) is based on your age, knowledge,
           skills and experience. Send resume by e-mail or give it to me in class
          - must be typed (so I can read it).
