We have so many stellar volunteers that we decided to start doing a spotlight
on them in our newsletters. Scott joined us almost a year ago as a volunteer.
During this short time Scott has made quite the impact here at the center.
He is a fantastic volunteer and is ready to pitch in with anything that is
needed. He has helped with all of our outdoor events during Covid-19
including Entertainment Under the Stars, drive thru lunches, parking lot lunch
events, helping to maintain the garden beds, Community First Meals,
rebranding committee and recently has taken the lead role as head volunteer
to oversee the community gardens. He is working on making the garden beds
self-sustainable with a drip watering system and has plans for insect
netting around the plants. He even convinced his brother to volunteer!
Scott, a retired dentist, is proud dad of a son and a daughter and when you
don’t find Scott at the center helping out, you can find him on his boat with
his brother!
We thank Scott and all of our volunteers for the time that they generously
give back at the center, you all make such a difference!!

Please join us in celebrating the life and legacies of our
featured models and our unveiling of our
Portraits of Life / Honoring Legacies Project.

We are honored to be sharing individual stories
with photographs and biographies.

Light refreshments will be served.
