First Meeting - 31 March 2014 Brett Helsten is a distribution manager for a welding supply company. He lives in Kearns and currently serves on the Kearns community council. Unfortunately, I had the least amount of time with Brett, but I did have a chance to talk about a few items. He is a strong advocate of revive volunteerism at the county level. He states that today the county spends money on hiring service providers where volunteers could do the job just as well. Specifically, he mentioned the aging and elder care services that the county provides. He didn't offer a lot of detail on the viability of getting a reliable stream of volunteers for any service, but simply stated that the county isn't trying that route at all in the first place. In this regard, he reminds me of Jake Parkinson who wants to "go back" to more old-fashioned ways. Maybe it will work, maybe it won't. I failed to ask him what kind of success he has had in rounding up volunteers
