FIFTH SECOND SATURDAY

This past Saturday, our volunteer event was at a local community food bank that we happened to work at last year also.  This time there were 225 volunteers involved in a variety of activities.

 

 

 

Sorting out canned goods

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sorting and bundling plastic bags

 

 

Bagging frozen chickens

 

Bagging dry pasta

 

 
 
 

 

 

Bagging flour.  We were in the flour bagging group and it was fun but a little messy.  No matter how careful we were, everyone still got flour all over their clothes and some looked like ghosts by the end of the morning.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Part of the outreach was to serve hot dogs to people who were picking up food and to also help out in the attached thrift shop.  This food bank is one of the busiest in the area.

 

This was our last volunteer event for the season and we are starting to get ready for going home in a couple of weeks.  There are still some fun things to do yet.
