Other Government bodies are using volunteers for projects, including people from the County's Alternative Sentencing Programs. I sent this link off to Mike, to show him it is being done successfully. If I were him, I would be milking this cow till her teets hurt. During the $ crunch, volunteers could augment Gore staff to get even more done in the off season.

He MAY be able to use some Alternatives Sentencing people to augment the Snowmaking crew next season. They were short bodies last season, BOO!

He's gonna have to think outside the box to git-r-done this year.
