We will update this particular blog posting to provide new notes for volunteers:
- Motel Black List. There are clients of the consolidated motel voucher program who are no longer welcome at our motels. There is a printed list in one of the binders on the administrative assistant’s desk. Please check the list before you send someone to the Holiday Motel. This has not yet been a problem.
- Cold Weather Shelter Food:
- Our stuff is stored in the Food Bank’s big refrigerator on two shelves (with appropriate signage).
- The food in the small refrigerators in the kitchen belong to other groups.
- Rolls and bread for breakfast are on shelves just outside the refrigerator door.
- Animal Cages:
- If needed, are located in the CWS great room, but will no doubt find their way to the storage area across from the restrooms.
- Pack up the Tents on
- Wednesday AM
- Thursday AM
- 3rd Monday AM
- Toilet Paper
- Please check on the rolls in the upstairs restrooms
- TP rolls are in the storage locker next to our pads storage area. The key to open the restroom TP dispensers is on the janitor’s cart, hanging on a hook/stick located at the top shelf near the handle
- Sticky Kids
- The kids group that uses the Hall on Wednesday evenings will, upon occasion, leave sticky bits on the floor. Please use the big dust-mop located just outside the kitchen door to sweep up.
- If you run across any sticky bits you can clean this with the wet Swifter in the storage locker (next to our pads storage).
- The Big Trash Can
- After breakfast, please empty the Big Trash Can (near the kitchen door) into the dumpster out back. (It should roll…via the elevator and down the ramp.
- Please don’t put liquids into the Trash can . The plastic bags can’t hold the weight. Liquids go into the sink.
- Keep the Kitchen Neat and TIdy
- Please!
