In 1995 Sno-King Chapter was formed so that people who live in north King and Snohomish counties can enjoy the benefits of being Bluebills and volunteer their time and skills to their friends, neighbors and local communities.
Our members have found many different ways to serve our communities in general and our neighbors in particular.
In 2005, we contributed over 20,000 volunteer hours to various projects ranging from filling Christmas stockings to moving seniors into new accommodations. We pay particular attention to the well being of our fellow Bluebills who may have special needs because of health or financial problems. Bluebills enjoy tremendous feelings of pride and satisfaction for the hours we devote to these causes. And those we help realize that someone cares and they don't have to face their concerns alone.
Because retired Bluebills spent their careers at a technically oriented company known for its support to educational programs, it's natura l for us to maintain our interest in local schools. The demand is great for reading help, lunch buddies, mentoring, collateral engineering programs, panelists at graduation presentations, and many other assignments. In most cases, the qualification for helping at schools is to "just be a grandparent".
General meetings are at 1 p.m. on the fourth Thursday of each month. Our office is located in the Boeing Everett Employees Activity Center, 2.3 miles north of the Boeing Everett plant on Seaway Boulevard. The SnoKing office is open daily from 9 a.m. to noon, Monday through Friday.
