ANSWER: Vacation Bible School will be held July 15 to 19 with the closing program on Friday at 6:30 p.m. The theme is Roar — Life is wild — God is good.” The school is for children ages 4 to 14. Help make this a memorable VBS for the children.
DEAR SUN SPOTS: I’m hoping Sun Spots readers can help us, the Barker Mill Arms Tenant Association, which needs four or five restaurant-size cake pans and cookie sheets. They would help us provide meals for our residents more efficiently and aid us in better knowing portions per pan. Now, we have to cook in small batches using regular-sized pans and guess portion sizes and the number of pans needed for each meal.
We provide meals to bring tenants together, which makes it nice for those who can’t physically get out as often as they’d like or don’t like to cook for just one. We also cook for events such as our May 11 Rummage and Bake sale, and the Christmas Craft Fair.
If there is a restaurant replacing its pans or someone who has some they are no longer using, it would be great if you could donate them or offer them for a reasonable price. We would greatly appreciate it.
If we get more pans donated than needed, we will pass them along to Auburn’s Senior Community Center. They are in need of them as well. You may contact me at 784-8458.
