Please find our Salute to Heroes Luncheon on Nov. 16th. This is a very big luncheon for the holidays with over a 1000 Veterans. We have the largest building on the fairgrounds and it starts at 11. We could use a team to take second shift on food at 12:30 to 3 serving food/drinks and helping Veterans to tables.
Happy October!
I hope you are having a good start to the week! We still have lots of volunteer opportunities for you to do at the Quad City Botanical Center.

Students,
Please see the email below for a service opportunity this weekend. Please contact Mr. Robinson for more information.
Date: Saturday, 9/7
Ideally, I need 6-8 students in two groups:
Group 1: MEET AT 8:45, at SACRED HEART. They will get tables and chairs and load them into the truck. Then, these students will travel with us to the Cafe on Vine (932 W 6th) to set up the tables and chairs. They’d be done by 10:00.
Group 2: MEET AT 1:00 at CAFE ON VINE, 932 W 6th Street. They will tear down the tables and chairs and load them into the truck. Then, these students will travel with us back to Sacred Heart to put the tables and chairs away. They’d be done by 2:15.
The students can do both shifts, or we could have 12-16 total between the two shifts.
The students would be supervised by myself, and my husband, Caine Schneider. Ideally, the students can drive between Sacred Heart and the Cafe, but Caine and I have room in our cars if needed.
They can reach out to me at 563.676.9650, or nicolehirstschneider@gmail.com email address or inform Mr. Robinson. Ideally, I’d like to know by end of day Thursday, so we can email out the final instructions, and I can try to recruit others if there isn’t enough interest.
