Mar 2017 Auction – all efforts shown, except printing the journal, are performed by PHSC volunteers<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>. When I reviewed issue 30-3 of our journal I was reminded that we lost the first of our founders that summer\/fall of 2004 (Larry Boccioletti). Bob Lansdale posted a notice on page three asking potential volunteers to contact the late Bob Wilson.<\/p>\n

Well, two decades later, we still need volunteers and if you can help, email me at info@phsc.ca<\/a> and I will pass you on to Clint. \u00a0We are always in need and can pop you into any appropriate task\/position.<\/p>\n

For example, I joined the society in 1975, just after the Charter Member offering closed. \u00a0On volunteering a year later, My first task was auditing our first year’s expenses. I later moved to the executive where I held various positions.<\/p>\n

My most recent position is that of 2nd Vice President – and Webmaster. I created the web site and it was up April 17, 1996 when few people had personal computers or even knew of the world wide web. Since then, I have done a few major revisions, most recently changing to WordPress to make editing and uploading images and files a much easier process, especially for anyone with no commercial web editor nor any in depth technical experience.<\/p>\n

Some of our volunteers hold down day jobs as well, while others are retired and free to contribute their energy and resources. As a not-for-profit society, we rarely pay for the services of our volunteers (speakers are offered a small stipend).<\/p>\n

Want to see us in action? Come out to the May 5th auction<\/a> (you may even find a piece for your collection)!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
