EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCE VOLUNTEERS
On March 13 and 14, 2014, Alzhiemer's Community Care held its Annual Educational Conference
at the Palm Beach County Convention Center. The conference would not happen if it was not for
those volunteers who gave their time and effort in helping us prepare for this vast undertaking. Our
Volunteers gave over 200 volunteers hours for the conference and continue to devote their valuable
time and services to the organization. ACC Volunteers played a variety of roles over the two-days.
The volunteers served as faciliatators, greeters, and working the regristration and ACC booth. We
appreciate all their hard work and dedication! A big thank you goes out to the following volunteers
for helping out: Merilyn Diamond, Margaret Matthews, Elaine Burger, Joe Trione, Wilhelmina Wilson,
Peter Walker, Diane Gimbel, Tiffany Tate, Dale Bruhn and Gail Maschek.
