🤝 Volunteers are Appreciated (Set-Up & Clean-Up)
If you are available and willing to lend a hand, we would so appreciate a few helping hands from 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM to assist with setting up the space for our picnic. It’s a wonderful way to come together and help get everything ready for a smooth and joyful event.
Also, while our picnic officially ends at 4:00 PM, we would be grateful for any volunteers who are willing to stay from 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM to help clean up and return the Fellowship Hall and outdoor spaces to the wonderful condition in which we found them. Many hands make light work, and any help would be greatly appreciated!
If you can help volunteer with either of the above, please reply to @April Thompson and let her know your availability for help. That will be so helpful.
💙 A Note of Gratitude
We are incredibly thankful to First Baptist Church for generously allowing us to use their space for this special gathering. For those who would like to contribute, we will have an opportunity on the day of the event to make a voluntary donation to the church as a small token of our appreciation for their hospitality. Please know that participation is entirely optional, and any amount is welcomed with gratitude. I will have a donation envelope and a Thank you Card for all of us to sign the day of the event.
