Senator Orrin Hatch To Keynote the 2010 Utah Conference on Service

 

SALT LAKE CITY- Lieutenant Governor Greg Bell and the Utah Commission on Volunteers are excited to announce this year’s 2010 Utah Conference on Service keynote speaker will be Senator Orrin Hatch. The conference will be held at the Hilton Salt Lake City Center from April 6-8. Registration for this event is now open. 

The conference is the state’s largest gathering of volunteer and service leaders from the nonprofit, government and corporate sectors. This three-day event offers the opportunity to learn, connect, be inspired and make a difference through a wide variety of exciting and informative sessions, workshops, special events, service projects and more.

“We are pleased to partner with the state’s best thinkers and practitioners of service and volunteering to provide the tools service organizations need to be successful during these difficult times,” said Shar Lewis, Executive Director of the Utah Commission of Volunteers.  “Participants will come away inspired, energized and ready to serve.”

Senator Orrin Hatch co-sponsored The Serve America Act, which seeks to expand opportunities for people to serve their communities at every stage of life, from students and working adults to retirees.
