COMMUNITY SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES
Ladies, please look over the following opportunities and choose one or two that are right for you. Then call the contact person listed and give of your time. These organizations are worthy of our talents and they need help with free labor to make their resources go farther. To motivate you for every day you volunteer you may put your name on a card to go into an every other month drawing for a free massage at Massage Envy in Bridgewater Falls by Panera bread. The first drawing will be at the Make and Bake if we have at least 10 entries. (You can enter that day if you have completed volunteer service)
Any questions? Call Pat Deis-Gleeson at 310-4175.
