Use Community Service Hours with Campus Kitchen

With summer programs wrapping up (thanks TRIO and AASK for your help!) and students not quite back on campus, the Campus Kitchen Project needs assistance to cover shifts (especially cooking and Sunday shifts) into September. Please join us for a evening or two (you can even get paid with your 16 hours of community service)! Check out our new volunteer calendar here: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pnEnj5_k0ileAHqYy1-a6PA&hl=en and let me know if any opportunities work for you.

Besides preparing and delivering meals, we're constructing a hoop style, smaller greenhouse near the garden to produce veggies into the winter. If you have any or no carpentry skills and would like to help, we'll be working on it every afternoon next week. Let me know if you can come. Thanks in advance! campuskitchen@augsburg.edu

Remember, all staff have 16 paid hours of community service that can go towards assisting us.
