Needed: Full time summer babysitter for two girls, 5 and 7
Posted Mar 17, 2011 at 09:31am by Sarah Liebl

We are looking for a summer babysitter, hopefully full time, to watch our girls.  She needs to have a car (and a decent driving record) so she can take them to different activities throughout the summer.
 
Last year, we had a sitter from 7:45am to 5:15pm, Monday through Friday, and hope to find someone that will work the same hours. We are flexible though so please call even if you can't commit to every day during the summer.
 
If you know of a high school or juco student who wants to watch two girls, ages five and seven, and go to the pool with them most days, please let me know!  It's a pretty good gig!
 
Thanks,
Sarah Liebl, 694.9194

Posted Jan 21, 2011 at 08:01am by Mandy Swisher

Are you interested in serving on the Board of a local organization?  Gloria Holtz at Wesley Towers is looking for young professionals to sit on the Board for Meals on Wheels. The best part is that the time commitment is very small and the meetings are during the day!

They meet 4 times a year...that's right, quarterly!  And they meet at 12:15 p.m. over the lunch hour the 2nd Wednesday of the month (January, April, July, & October).  Meetings are held at Wesley Towers which is where the Meals on Wheels program is coordinated. 

Meals on Wheels desperately needs input from young professionals to make sure this is an opportunity that will be around to serve the elderly and home-bound in our community in the future.  Please consider giving 4 hours a year to this program.

If you are interested in being a driver for meals on wheels (about 1 hour per week) there are usually always open spots for this as well. 

Contact Gloria Holtz, Meals on Wheels Coordinator
hutchmow@att.net

If you'd like to talk to someone who is involved in the program you're more than welcome to contact me (mandylynn04@yahoo.com, Mandy Swisher) as I am currently a volunteer MOW driver.
