Dear Volunteers,
Below is a listing of those
individuals who have offered to do seminars for our event. If you would like
to step-forward and share you knowledge and/or skills we would be glad to add
you to our list. Our Seminar Coordinator is Ms. Ruth Py and she can be
contacted at (717)336-6194 or via e-mail at: <hbpysknk@ptd.net>. Because
Ruth and her Husband spend considerable time on the Rendezvous circuit, if you
are unable to make contact with Ruth please feel free to contact Father Thomas

Thank you for your help!
