Cost:
$0--->$?

Description:
We have a PTA member who is a liscensed massage therapist and she donates a day each year during teacher appreciation week. She brings her massage chair into the teachers lounge and stays all day giving 5-10 minute neck and shoulder rubs. You couldn't believe the response. The teachers love it, and it's the first thing they ask for every year. Many of our teachers now go to this volunteer for regular massage. So it works out well for her to donate 1 day, she has gotten an entire new customer base.

Preparation:
NONE

Other comments or suggestions:
It works out great for us, because our volunteer is a member of our group. If you had to pay for this service it could be quite pricy. As I mentioned, the lady who does the massage has practically doubled her client base, so maybe that incentive would encourage someone to volunteer.
