Operation at Ease
​Front Line Volunteers

The Front Line for Operation at Ease are the volunteers directly supporting one family during their visit.  Each family has someone serving in these roles specifically for them
Greeter: Each family has an experienced, personal greeter assigned.  However, greeters responsibilities start well before arrival
  • The greeter is in touch with the family about a week prior to answer questions and arrange a time
  • The afternoon of arrival the greeter ensures the condo is ready, picks up the key and places the meals prepared for Friday dinner, and both breakfasts in the condominium
  • At the arranged time, greets meet their guests, escort them to the condo and go over information to make the weekend even more enjoyable
  • Greeters then fade into the sunset, so our guests have family time...but are always just a phone call away
  • After the visit the greeter ensures everything is wrapped up after the family departs.
Meal Preparation:  Every family receives three home cooked meals during their stay.  Each prepared by a different volunteer.  Custom made to fit the family size and accommodate any dietary concerns.  Meals are dropped off the day of the families arrival so they are fresh.
Photographers:  Each family has the opportunity spend an hour or so at a predetermined time and location with an OAE volunteer photographer.  All are dedicated to the craft, and many have actually been in the field professionally.  OAE guests then receive a memory stick with all the photos uploaded from that session.  The photos are not meant to cover the weekend, families will do that.  But does provide a chance for the entire family to be in all the photos
Boat Owners:  When an OAE family selects a boat ride as their Saturday Activity, a licensed St. James boat owner provides them with a ride.  Southport, Holden Beach, Oak Island and other places are as scenic from the water as they are from land
