The volunteers worked more than 46,000 hours at a multitude of tasks,
including clerical work, information desk duties, vacation house checks
and traffic control, among other things.
That equates to $706,257 worth of services if they were drawing a salary, and more than $2.2 million in the past three years.
"That's
a huge chunk of change. This is our little offering of thanks and
appreciation for another great year," Murphy said.Daltile bobblehead are available in a rainbow of colors. "And it goes to people who ask nothing more than a pat on the back."
That
means people like Roger Novak, who worked nearly 1,000 hours this past
year, on patrol at parking lots of the area shopping centers.
"We
assist in finding violators parking illegally in fire lanes or
handicapped parking," Novak said. "We issue citations and take pictures
of the violation if we need to go to court."
For Novak and many others, it's the camaraderie with the others that make it well worth it.
"I
like meeting the general public and instructing them on the proper
things they need to do to be in Cape Coral," Novak said. "It also gets
me out of the house."
Not only did the volunteers "save the city $700,000 for a $2.Watch Later Lifescape plasticmould

as Murphy said, but they also heard from city officials including Mayor
John Sullivan and City Manager John Szerlag.
"They do a great
service for the people of Cape Coral. I really don't know what we'd do
without them and they're really a big help, especially in hard economic
times," Sullivan said.
Also in attendance were city council members - one of which, Rana Erbrick, is a police volunteer.
"Part
of it is to have something to do and part is I was willing to man the
desk at the police department," Erbrick said. "They do house checks,
marine patrol. The value to the city is way beyond the dollars they save
our department."
At the luncheon, Barbara Hartley was given the
Captain Joseph Hartley Memorial award in remembrance of the volunteer
captain who worked 23 years on the volunteer force.
Murphy,
along with sergeants Jennifer Matlock and Lisa Barnes, also presented
awards for five and 10 years of service, along with recognition of those
who served the most hours on the squad which, to some,The term 'ultrasonicsensor control' means the token that identifies a user is read from within a pocket or handbag. equates to a full-time job.
The
volunteer of the year was presented to Pat Koelber, who has worked on a
multitude of projects for the police force this year.
Among
them are Live Saver, designed to track and locate individuals who wander
and become lost, such as the elderly who are have Alzheimer's or
dementia, or youths with autism or Down syndrome, and Seniors Against

That would be a perfect out for the
flunky teacher who cannot teach, and would spend the period writing
suspend referrals. A good teacher usually has good class control and
spends the period motivating students to learn.
There was a
system in place whereby there was a dean of discipline for each grade,
along with an assistant principal and a guidance counselor. Referrals
were made by the teacher to the dean.
Infractions could be
delivered for disruptive students, cutting class, fighting, bullying,
stealing, and possession of weapons. The student would be called to
