Serve Saturday at the Sharing center - July 10
Our Council will participate with Serve Saturday at the Sharing center every 2nd Saturday of the month, serving from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm Noon. Our next event is scheduled for July 10.
Each month, our Council's volunteer group can have 6 – 21 people who will volunteer their time each Saturday. There is no pre-paperwork to fill out. Once at the center, everyone will sign in and someone will conduct a brief orientation and then deploy us to serve. Volunteers will assist in the Distribution Center, where donations are received and processed. Volunteers sort, inspect, organize and stock shelves with donations.
If you can attend this next event, please RSVP your information by clicking on the RSVP link that is included in the Serve Saturday at the Sharing center email that is sent out prior to that date. Complete the requested information on the RSVP form and submit it. This will provide the number of people and who will be attending this month's event.

Coordinate this with the Knight who is leading this community service project so he is aware you are providing this form.
