Nursing Home
  • Jr. Volunteer Program for Students Coming out of 6th through High School - Applicants must complete the necessary paperwork and have it turned in by May 22.  Please contact Sis. Patsy Kaeb at the Nursing Home if your child is interested in volunteering this summer.
  • Volunteers Needed - Because of uneven pavement we are needing to knock out some concrete in the courtyard at the Nursing Home.  This project is going to take place on Friday evening, June 1. This project will take a lot of strong boys and men so we can have shifts.  We thought the first shift would come and tear out the concrete (maybe another shift to tear out if they get tired) and maybe an hour later the next group come to wheelbarrow it out to be hauled away.  Many hands make light work so please call the nursing home and let us know if you are willing to help even a couple hours.
