| Apr 19 Our Neighbor's Place: Packing Party! |
There are lots of exciting things happening at Our Neighbors Place this month. The Day Center will be MOVING!! It will relocate to 1207 S Main Street (just south of Dick’s grocery).
Packing party! If you are available to come and help pack up the day center, let Katie Morsch know! Bring your boxes and/or totes (put your name on them!). Once Our Neighbors Place gets a list of people that are available they will narrow down a time that works for most. They will be deciding what will go and what to get rid of. They are not taking everything and it's a great time for them to get rid of things thye aren’t using.

| Apr 26 Our Neighbor's Place: The Move! |
The move will be coordinated by Mary Jo Sutton. It will primarily happen from 9am-12pm. Let Our Neighbors Place know when you are available to help. Ideally we will have a caravan of trucks and trailers (coordinated by time to not create congestion) and 5-10 movers at each site loading and unloading the trucks and trailers. Let them know if you are available to help out and what time you are available. Plan on lifting, carrying and moving things. If you are not able to do those things Our Neighbors Place will need people to start unpacking after the move. Guest Coordinators will lead the unpacking since they know the stuff but others are welcome as well.
