“Inspire by Example” Eleventh Annual Volunteer Symposium Coming Up Doug Brown, Resident Editor “I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the community, and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can.” — George Bernard Shaw

In a celebration of National Volunteer Week, Lincoln residents will soon be treated to yet another exhibition of magnanimity in the Volunteer Symposium in Orchard Creek Ballroom, 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Friday, April 26. Come on out for an impressive display of service opportunities! Lincoln Hills is aptly described as an active adult community, but not just active in hobbies, sports, gaming, arts, and music. We are also a laudable example of a community that reaches out to neighbors in SCLH, Lincoln, and surrounding communities. What are the benefits of volunteering? Vonda Carlson, who has eagerly volun- teered with many Lincoln organizations over the 12 years of her residence here, declares that volunteers live longer! And serving others gives her “a reason to get up in the morning.” Marian Kinsella, who coordinates the monthly Compass distribution, states that volunteering is “a great way to meet people.” There are about 50 volunteers every month at the Com- pass insert “stuffing party,” and they are thank- ful to be able to give back. Mark Dentinger, having twice served as president of the Lincoln Hills Foundation, that rewards come from “the privilege of being able to help so many seniors in our area.” Lincoln Hills thrives on our hundreds of volunteers, from directors on our Board and club leaders—who spend multiple hours each week fulfilling their roles—to those who give an hour a week perhaps tutoring a Photos, clockwise from top: Volunteers are needed schoolchild or assisting in our Neighborhood within several city of Lincoln organizations; many Watch network.
