MLK Jr. Day celebration updates

 It's time to get involved! There are so many options. I hope you can find one that works for you. We are sponsoring 3 service projects. For the 3rd year in a row, we are participating in Book Harvest--collecting new or gently used children's books. Let's fill these bins! We are also sponsoring a food drive in connection with PORCH-Hillsborough. Non-perishable food items are needed. Donations can be made in the purple containers in each unit or in front of the soccer field. We are also collecting school supplies for schools in Liberia. What is needed? Coloring books, markers, pencils, rain ponchos, notebooks, pens, and white chalk. Collection boxes will be available in each unit. You can also bring donations on the morning of our celebration--Monday, January 21st at 10:30am. See you there!
 The Gospel Choir will begin rehearsing on Friday, January 11, from 5:30-6:30pm in the Center. All ages are welcome! The Drum Ensemble's first rehearsal is Tuesday, January 15th, from 5:00-7:00pm.
So many ways to get involved in this important celebration. We want to remember Dr. King and all that he stood for. How will you get involved??
