The Ayden Minister’s Alliance, in cooperation with the Town of Ayden and the local school district is proud to sponsor the first annual Ayden Community Day of Caring.
The event will take place this Saturday, August 17th starting at 7:00am, and its primary purpose is to invest in the lives of our students, teachers and administrators by coming together to help prepare our local elementary and middle schools for the first day of school.
Those who have previously volunteered to participate or those still considering should plan to arrive a little before 7:00am. Parking will be directed by an Ayden Police Officer. Initial parking will take place at the Ayden Elementary School parking lot with overflow parking at the open green space to the right of the entrance of the Ayden Middle School campus.
Members that have volunteered to participate are to check-in at the “sign-in” tables in front of Ayden Elementary School. There you will be assigned to a work station. Also, please bring work gloves and any other hand yard tools that you may own to assist with the day’s work (e.g. rakes, shovels, pitch forks, etc…).
Additionally, lunch will be provided for participants (catered by Skylight Inn BBQ) following the completion of work at the Ayden Middle School cafeteria.
According to our Town Manager Adam Mitchell, it looks like things are shaping up for a great day of community service. We have approximately 100 people committed to volunteer and participate which meets our goal of 100 strong! This is a great way to take on the improvements at both Ayden Elementary School and Ayden Middle School as a community, and a wonderful way to make connections and work alongside others to share the light of Christ in our community.
