A special thanks -' to'ovr wedding party who did a marvelous job. Crystal & Rob Varley 1 Letters to the Editor Making a difference • Dear Editor: After ten years of working with the volunteer sec- tor, it remains a challenge to say thank you in a way that ensures sincerity..We try potlucks, brunches, cards, pins, pens, mugs, flowers... and the list goes on. The literature that I read and my experience tells me that the most effective way to show apprecia- tion is by giving a hug or handshake and a simple "Thank you, you made such a difference." When we go on with lavish overflow of compli- ments the individual often appears embarrassed - not wanting to be centered out in the crowd. Perhaps it could b? compared to complimenting a woman wearing a new outfit. The response to the compliment often is "Oh this old thing". Even though the comment is flattering in the fact that they noticed, it's a little uncomfortable. National Vollunteer Week is from April 18 to 24. It's a time that Volunteer Managers across the country say, thank you to our volunteers. You are the people who make our communities wonderful places to live. You are generous, compassionate, -trustworthy and selfless and you truly make a dif- feMence Ito people's lives. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. It is an honour to work with people like you every day. Accept these compliments with the pride that they are given with. I just know that you're reading this and saying "Oh, it was nothing." Thatilyou vbluntcers everywhere!
