We continue to recommend that you stay home if you have any symptoms, and that you keep up with all available vaccinations and boosters.

Our monthly building and grounds work day is normally on the second Saturday of each month.
For November 2023, it will be on the third Saturday (18 November 2023) from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
Last weekend, we had LA-AID guests staying in our building and the weather was uncertain for outdoor tasks. Because of these issues, we moved the building and grounds work day to Saturday, 18 November 2023.
There are tasks inside and out for all ages and abilities.
Thanks for your flexibility and understanding.

We have LA -AID guests staying with us through the second weekend in November and the weather is iffy for the second weekend.
