Wow!! Either the form has changed since I singed up or
there are different forms for members and nonmembers.
Jamie, was the form you filled out like that? I think
I had to answer questions about my background, i.e.,
what in it would qualify me, and write a paragraph
explaining why I wanted to volunteer. There were other
questions I don't remember.
