Volunteers Needed!

SEAMEC is looking for volunteers throughout the 2010 campaign season.
Have you ever wondered what the candidates are really like in person? Volunteer as an interviewer, and you'll get to meet candidates and hear first hand what they have to say on LGBT issues. You don't have to be an expert; we'll give you everything you need to be an interviewer. Volunteer for one evening and see how good it feels to get your questions answered - and then come back for more.
We also need volunteers to help us distribute ratings sheets and plan events.
If you would like to volunteer or find out more, please contact Jason Mull at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
