| Volunteeers from Home Depot painted the dining hall during 2010, bringing fresh and bright colors. After completion of painting, new chairs and tables were purchased. |
Volunteers make it happen! A student from Mary Baldwin College helps manage the food stores for the meal service. Almost all of the food used in the dining hall is donated by individuals, groups and companies in our community. |
