Volunteer Corner
We're excited to announce that Nancy Thompson is our 2021 Volunteer of the Year! Nancy took over as the SEFAA Treasurer in April 2019 and retired this month to move to North Carolina. She not only kept our accounts in order and balanced, but she also served as a cashier for SEFAA events, taught a class or two, and helped us transition to a new database and QuickBooks online. Please help us thank her for her devotion and service to SEFAA. She was always a joy to work with and we will miss her!
