Outreach Opportunities for all ages

The annual Outreach Fair took place October 10, 2010.  Displays, information and Outreach volunteers were available to help members and friends consider the different service opportunities throughout the year and to see firsthand what our OCWM funds support. 

There were sign ups for local and regional outreach events, including the CROP Walk which took place the following week with 17 walkers, raising over $600. 

It was an hour of fellowship, fun, learning and outreach all wrapped up in one.  For more information, please speak with Mark Fredette, Jan Stevens or Char Corbett.

See "Our Community Partners Are in Need" under the Highlights section of the website for a complete list of goods or services needed currently.
