These positions will be short-term and temporary. Pay rates, days and hours will vary based on the duties of the position. All available members who would like to do these fill-in positions would have an interview to place them where they are best suited and comfortable working when needs arise.

So, if you are retired, unemployed or just looking for something to do in your spare time, please fill out an application and submit it to the Human Resources Department. We will keep your information on file and when an opening comes up we will contact those interested about the opportunity.
