Food, Glorious Food

Thank you to all the members who donated food to the Rutgers Food Pantry. To say they were grateful is an understatement. We had volunteers from the Douglass Developmental Disabilities Center come help unpack, sort, count, repack and load boxes and bags into cars for delivery. Thanks to Joanne Mangels, Chris Burlew and Fran Gualemi for assisting and providing their vehicles to make the delivery. Altogether, we delivered 2,309 items. A more complete list will be in the April ALMANAC.

Zoom Workshop

On Thursday, February 24th at 7:00 p.m. join us as Jane Mackesy gives us tips on researching our ancestors. Contact janwh@aol.com for the Zoom link for these workshops. Thank you to everyone who joined the Operation Chillout Zoom informational meeting.
