If this seems like a craft you want to make, come join us at the Rockford Library! For all ages. Limit 16.

We are looking forward to celebrating the
Eighth Annual Crow River Serve Day on Saturday, May 16!
It is never too early to start planning. We welcome new Steering Committee Members and invite you to join us!
We begin with monthly meetings in late January, meet more frequently beginning in March and build to weekly meetings in April and May. Meetings are made as accessible as possible with ‘drop-in’ on Monday afternoons at Greenrock Deli as it fits your schedule. We are flexible! Currently looking for someone to coordinate the
“Hunger”
area of the three needs we serve; this involves coordinating food drives and managing packing meals for Kids Against Hunger. If you share a love of gardening, there is a need to oversee planting and maintenance of adoptable garden plots at Our Father’s Lutheran Church in Rockford.
“Health”
is in need of a person to explore some new ideas.
“Habitation”
needs a person willing to recruit and and supervise the freshening of the mural painted on the side of ABC Printing on Bridge Street in Rockford.
Stay up to date by following Thousand Hearts Crow River Serve Day on Facebook!
