Tis the season of giving! On Saturday, December 15th between 9AM to 5PM we will have volunteers on campus to help you wrap your Christmas gifts. Volunteers include students from washington high school, the A-Team of Worldmark Scottsdale and multiple off-campus individuals. Please take advantage of this opportunity and get your gifts wrapped free. You can schedule a time to ensure the volunteer availability or simply walk up. We will be out at the Central Mall and Plaza Club.
On behalf of Maryland School, we would like to thank those that donated smocks to the art program at Maryland. They are still in need of more, if you are interested in donating smocks, or large T-shirts, please contact resident Sybil Eppinger at x15132. In addition, we now have five residents who are tutoring refugee students of Maryland who live at Avenue 15 Apartments across the street, after school. They are meeting them in the Bistro on Monday and Thursday afternoons (Residents Nell Bennett, Mim Hoover, Nadine Smith, Dan O'Horo, and Marilyn Lucas). Three Syrian brothers and a brother and sister from the Congo. This is such a wonderful model, and we are hoping that other residents observe this happening and might want to get involved.
There is also an opportunity to teach adult refugees right here on our very own campus. The next session starts at the end of January. The commitment is minimal and training is provided!
Lastly, we are looking for volunteers to be Roadrunner readers during the weekdays, between 8 and 8:20AM. This is a great opportunity for our residents with low vision to be able to hear the happenings within the Roadrunner and ask any questions. This awesome opportunity is put together by our Communication Committee as they are always looking for ways to get all information to you in the best way possible. We hope that you will take advantage of these readings that will start on Monday, January 7, 2019! If interested in being a reader, please contact the Communications & Media Director, Korry Nelson, at x18493.
For all other interests and inquiries, please give me a call at x18526 or email me at [email protected]. *
