It was a different kind of meeting than SGR has had in the recent past, but there was Christmas music while we worked and good support from our membership!
300 bags are needed to create one mat for someone sleeping on the ground
SGR will complete 4 mats with the more than 1200 grocery bags collected!
Monday found us hard at work creating "plastic yarn" (PLARN) to weave mats for SG's homeless
CHANGE OF PROGRAM: Join us at the RISE garden at Switchpoint
A tree-planting project at the new Washington County building was the original plan for our meeting on Monday, November 21, but things have changed so instead we have the opportunity to provide service at Switchpoint's Rise Garden at 948 N. 1300 West off Sunset Blvd.
Park in the lower lot and walk up the hill. The garden area is behind the pantry. Ask for Montana.
