ORDC needs your HELP Again! On Tuesday July 9th some members of the Odin Renewal and Development will be sorting plastic caps to get enough to make 2-3 picnic tables for the Odin school. We have the caps but many of them need to be sorted or cleaned.
This is not hard or heavy work, and you can sit at a table and sort the plastic caps. We will be working from 9 am - 12 at Hubbell’s Warehouse. Anyone willing to donate a few hours would be greatly appreciated by ORDC and our school. The school will be offering community service hours for this project.
