Busy, busy, busy!

Volunteers have been working hard getting furnishings into the apartments and then getting the kitchen items washed and put away and the apartments cleaned. As of March 19, 34 apartments are occupied or in the process of being filled. Some of the original occupants have moved out and new guests are enjoying the apartments.

The community room has been cleared of all items that are not going to be part of the furnishings for that room. The room is truly large!

Open house reminder: Sunday, April 13 from 2 to 4 p.m. All are invited.
