Vibrant Volunteers


Pictured above are Barbara and Jack Merrell, caretakers of the Cradle of Forestry, at a dinner at the Pisgah Inn. Barbara, a retired high-school teacher, is in charge of all the volunteers. Jack, a former golf pro, is in charge of the food operation. They too are volunteers for the U.S. Forest Service.

Her we are, enjoying another meal together. We like volunteering.

V-aluable is the work you do.
O-utstanding how you always come through.
L-oyal, sincere and full of good cheer.
U-ntiring in your efforts throughout the year.
N-otable are the contributions you make.
T-rustworthy in every project you take.
E-ager to reach your every goal.
E-ffective in the way you fulfill your role.
R-eady with a smile like a shining star.
S-pecial and wonderful -- that’s what you are.
