Quartermaster, Tool Czar: The Trail Conference is looking for a conscientious soul to help us inventory and track our vast storehouse of tools and equipment. This includes rock bars, grip hoists and inclinometers but also GPS's, video projectors and tabletop displays. All of these are purchased with our member's charitable donations, so we want to make sure they are being put to good use and in good condition. If you enjoy keeping good records and have a few hours per month, we want to talk with you.
