<span style="font-size:12.0pt" class="ContentPasted0">The Dairy Barn Arts Center in Athens is hosting the Quilt National Exhibit again this summer and they have reached out to see if the Emeriti Association could provide volunteers to help staff the exhibit
reception desk. The exhibit will run from <b class="ContentPasted0">May 26th (Memorial Day) to September 11th.</b> The Dairy Barn has asked if we could provide volunteers for Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons while the exhibit is showing. Quilt National is
the most popular exhibit hosted by the Dairy Barn and I’m sure our help as volunteers would be much appreciated.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes" class="ContentPasted0">

I am hoping to get enough volunteers where each volunteer would only be needed for 2 maybe 3 shifts during the summer.
