Update on Open Shifts and Tours.

Hello Docents,

You have been so great at stepping up and covering shifts and tours. I really appreciate all of your help, especially with Rockwell coming up. I noticed a little typo in my last message so I wanted to send you a short update of what I still need your help with.

I really really need of a docent for the following ESL (English as a Second Language) tours! They are coming up really soon!

February 10th (Thurs.) 10am-12pm; Museum Visit – Tour from 10:00 am to 10:30 am
February 17th (Thurs.) 6pm-8pm; Museum Visit – Tour from 6:00 pm to 6:30 pm

There will be a translator present, you will just need to speak slowly and simply for about half an hour on the Mighty Tacoma exhibition. You will be working with Josh who will be doing other activities tied to the timeframe. We will need your participation for the first half hour of the times listed below.

I also have the following open shifts available:

Saturday, March 19^th, from 11 am to 3 pm

Thursday, April 28^th, from 11 am to 3 pm

Friday, April 29^th, from 11 am to 3 pm

I am sorry for any confusion! Thank you for all that you do!

Regards,

Megan
