To Be Determined
 
We hope to haunt with you this year. Please let me know if you or your organization would like more information about any of the volunteer opportunities, or if you are ready to say YES to contributing volunteer time to the event. Please share the preliminary number of volunteers you anticipate volunteering with your group, if relevant, and what role(s) you are interested in committing to.
 
We look forward to resurrecting this cryptic event with you.
 
Happy Haunting,
