We have four collection counting teams that count Sunday's collections on the following Monday. Each team has a leader responsible for the accuracy of the count and depositing the funds at the bank. We begin at 8:00 a.m. and use a room set up for counting located off the Upper Hall. Based on the number of collections that Sunday, the process takes from 35 to 90 minutes. Each team counts for one month out of every four. These teams are in need of additional counters:
Feb-June-Oct (1) person
March-July-Nov (1) person
April-Aug-Dec (2) people
If you are interested, contact Mike Kerwin at 501-922-1531. Training will be provided.
