[Elfsea] Highland games and Elfsea

It is sad to see problems and not be capable of
helping out. 
One good way to express an interest in an office
is to volunteer as a deputy and learn the
functions and reports required. Taking classes
and working with the present officer can assist
the group greatly with their efforts. 
Once the present office is opening up, you can
then ask for help in applying for that position.
You can state your experience directly as you
have been working along side the office and the
group where you are applying. People will have
gained a sense of trust that you are capable of
doing that job.
