Seasonal Support

The Foundation for the Volunteers is the support system that spans from one month to the entire summer to ensure the family visits are successful.  Commitments here are more than one weekend.
Picture
Monthly Coordinator: Responsible for up to eight families visiting in a month.  When the opportunity comes for the "front line" to volunteer, the monthly coordinator ensures every family visiting is assigned a greeter, has sufficient meal prepares and a photographer, and when applicable a boat captain.  All are very adaptable as life sometimes gets in the way, and replacements are needed at the last minute in the front line.

Monthly coordinators have served as front line volunteers prior to their present role.
Melinda "The Basket Lady":  Prepares special beach pails for each child that comes to visit.  Wonderful gift for use while at St. James and momento of the visit after returning home

Lisa: Decorates and donates a souvenir  mug with the Operation at Ease logo for every family.  

Judy and the St. James Quilters: Make and donate hand crafted ornaments as mementoes of the visit

​Cape Fear Chapter of the Blue Star Mothers
:  Donate Gift Certificates to the Families for Ice Cream at the Oak Island Ice Cream stands
Brian, the Beach Club Equipment Manager:  A special storage locker is set a side at the St. James Beach Club for use exclusively by Operation at Ease Guests.  Each week, the manager visits to ensure all equipment is still in good working order and there is enough for the upcoming visits
