Jacqui

Jacqui Does anyone have advice on the Wisconsin minimum wage laws that were recently passed. Counselors (regardless of age) are now required to earn $210/week. This is a large increase from what was required before- it means that our Junior Counselors will receive $1890!

Men Men hi, This is Mendy who is from Tawain. We are really impressed by your Association and hoping if there's a chance for visit. I have been writing different email to your association but didn't get any reply, so thought this (FB) might be a chance to get intouch with you.
