No special skills are required, just a desire to present Gillette to the rest of the nation as the outstanding community that we know it to be. If you are willing to help with any aspect of the NHSFR, please contact our volunteer coordinator, ReNae Keuck at: volunteer@cam-plex.com or by phone 307.682.0552.
