We had a lovely picnic potluck at Barton Park a few weekends ago to celebrate all the volunteer projects that we've undertaken since the beginning of the year: our monthly work serving dinner for those less fortunate at the Delonis Center, helping out at the Food Gatherers warehouse, revitalizing a neighborhood park for Earth Day, and sprucing up the trails at Barton Nature Area.
We have a few volunteer projects coming up July through September that need your help. We hope that you will join us and make
seva, selfless service, part of your yoga practice this summer!
