I've added a new activity tracker to allow you to track any and all community service that you might do. Its important for us to be involved with the community - and its important that you record it and get the recognition you deserve! Its in the My Member Page area, right next to the physical activity tracker. Let me know if you run into any problems - but it should be solid. -
