Message: As part of President Pribbenow's inaugural celebration, we will be engaging in service projects for the neighborhood on Saturday morning from 9-12 noon. There are two options for your time and talents:

1. The East African Women's Center - A project of the Confederation of Somali Community in Minnesota, this center provides East African women with culturally sensitive programming to support them as they integrate into American culture while retaining their sense of identity and belief. Ten interested volunteers will be painting, varnishing, and helping to spruce up this excellent community partner's facility in the Riverside Plaza.

2. Mississippi River Clean-Up - Most of us are unaware that Augsburg College is the steward for the stretch of river from Bohemian Flats to the I-94 bridge on the West Bank. Join us to clear litter and debris as we hear a bit of the river's history from Professor Joe Underhill-Cady. Be sure to bundle up as we take care of one of our neighborhood's most treasured resources.

We'll meet at 9 a.m. in the Christensen Center lobby for a continental breakfast to fuel our efforts.

If interested in serving with us, please send an email to Mary Laurel True at truem@augsburg.edu or Tim Dougherty at doughert@augsburg.edu by 2 p.m. on Friday. Call X1208 or X1775 with questions.
