Gentle Reminder to Volunteers
Some of the last beautiful days of summer are here, and with that comes those glorious August vacations and those well earned, last minute days off! What that means at Open Arms is many kitchen and delivery slots are open. In order to help us plan it's helpful to have 24 hours notice if you can't make your shift. Likewise, if you have time and can pick up a shift or two, we have a spot for you! As always, we appreciate each and every one of our volunteers. Contact Pete for shift notice or to pickup a shift or two.
Labor Day Schedule
Open Arms will be closed on Monday, September 6, in observance of Labor Day. Are you available to help? Pete is looking for extra delivery drivers on Tuesday, September 7, and Wednesday, September 8.
