Thank You!<br />
CHAP thanks all the volunteers. We require many volunteers<br />
to run the convention. We thank the many volunteers that make<br />
the convention a success. The benefits <strong>of</strong> volunteering include:<br />
• An opportunity to serve fellow homeschoolers.<br />
• Registration rebate equal to the registration <strong>of</strong> each volunteer.<br />
• Early bird shopping 8:00 – 9:30 a.m. on Friday. (Imagin the<br />
chance to shop with only three hundred other people.)<br />
• Online orientation, so no early morning orientation<br />
meeting to attend.<br />
Please consider<br />
volunteering<br />
next year!
