Volunteers

 

The Society and the genealogical community of St. Tammany Parish needs YOUR help.   Please consider volunteering for one or more of the following Society functions or activities that will enhance the ability of the Society to better serve its members and the genealogical community as a whole.   If you want to volunteer or want to know more about one of the volunteer assignments, please contact either Martha Dutsch or Rob Noles.   Most of these assignments will take only an hour or two per month at most and many a lot less.   In addition to the items listed below, please feel free to suggest other items that would benefit the Society.
