59th Annual House Tour - May 2008
The key to success for the Club's annual House Tour is all of the
wonderful Smith alumnae (and friends) who volunteer to work on the tour
each year! We are proud to have supported so many Smith students through
the incredible fundraising efforts of the tour. New volunteers are
always needed to ensure the Tour's future success. Volunteer
commitments range from only a few hours on Tour day to sharing your
energy and enthusiasm over the months leading up to the tour, but all
jobs share one common element - each and every job is essential to the
tour's success! Please check out the
House Tour Opportunities page to view some short job descriptions.
If you want to keep this Club tradition alive, be sure to contact
Tory Foster Van Voorhis, the 2007 House Tour chair, and let her know how you can help.
Provide an Event Location
Participate in a Smith Club event without even leaving your home! Spaces both large and
small are needed for various club activities including the annual meeting, gatherings for
students, lectures, teas, book club meetings, house tour home owners' party and more.
Contact Kathy Wissler (218-0880) if you can host an event.
Smith College Admissions
Would you like to share your enthusiasm for Smith with prospective students?
Consider assisting our area Alumnae Admission Coordinator Emma Kelly-Haskens with recruitment activities! A few of the ways in which you can help include co-hosting a table at a
local college fair or interviewing students applying to Smith.
Welcome Committee
Be part of a group of club members that welcome Rochester's newest Smith alumnae! Share your knowledge
and experience with Smithies new to our area and let them know what Rochester and our club
have to offer. Contact Kathy Wissler (218-0880) if you would like to volunteer or if you have ideas or suggestions that you would like to share with the committee.
