Meals or a portion of meal for up to 40 guests. A count will be given prior to our week. Food can be dropped of First Presbyterian Church at 5:30pm or you can stay to serve
Servers are needed from 5:30pm to 8:00pm to set up the kitchen, serve food, & clean up.

The sign up for shifts is the same as last year. Coming soon will be a link to the Sign Up Genius for the schedule, or just let me know what you'd like to sign up for, and I can do it for you. No background checks are required this year for the volunteers who work in the kitchen. We no longer need to fill early morning shifts as this time has been switched to staff.
