Date Set for 2009 Event: October 1

We've chosen the date for our volunteer event for 2009: Thursday, October 1. Hard to believe it, but the planning has already begun! We're going to follow the same format as last year, starting with breakfast at a central location before crews head out to the dozen or so agencies to work.

We're also going to start a Facebook group to make it easier to stay connected with folks who may have changed e-mail addresses, and to make it easier for people to spread the word to their networks. While we started this event with Herman Miller employees, we opened it up last year to women across the Holland/Zeeland community with good response; we're hoping for even more this year.

If you're new to the Women's Volunteer Service Day, check out the archive to read about last year's event. And stay tuned! We hope to see you on October 10.
