Specific Info about This Sunday's Service Project

Here's the information about Sunday's service project that my wife put on our Ridge Church Facebook group and emailed to folks. Not on our email list? Let me know and we'll take care of it! If you haven't signed up for Facebook, it's a great place to stay connected to other Ridgers, keep up with what we're doing and RSVP when we have events.

The Ridge is helping KARM with their Thanksgiving Basket Giveaway on Sunday, November 23rd, from 2-4 pm. We must meet at the KARM parking lot at 1:15 pm to meet up and check in as a group at the volunteer table. There will be NO parking there, but attached is a parking pass with places you can park. (Since there's no attachment, email Emily for one if you need it.)

Here are some helpful hints:
  • You will be outside, so dress accordingly.
  • No one under 16 is allowed at this event. We try to make all things kid friendly but this is not! So, we will have childcare available at Nicole Johnson's home. Emily will be staying there and Becca Thiele will be there as well. If you need childcare please email Emily or call her at 704.579.2022 to get the address. Also, Emily needs to know how many children we will have in case we need additional help, so please let her know before Friday November 21st! Kiddos will need to be dropped off at the Johnson home by 12:45 pm. We will NOT be providing their lunch, so send it with them or feed them before they get there.
  • You will need to fill out a Volunteer Waiver and bring it with you. Email Emily to get one.
Please call us with questions! 704.579.2022 (Emily, the event planner) or 704.579.2235 (Kevin).

Directions to KARM are below. We look forward to partnering with you on Sunday and serving our community together! Serving Others is one thing The Ridge values greatly--it's not just something we do at the holidays.

Thanks guys! We are excited to hear who is able to participate so please RSVP...

From West:
  • Take I-40 East to exit #388.
  • Take the right hand split on the exit ramp labeled "Western Ave./Summit Hill".
  • At the end of the ramp, turn left at the light. This will put you on Western Ave.
  • Go to the next traffic light and turn left. This will put you on Broadway.
  • Follow Broadway until you go under the Interstate overpass. We are the first building on the right after you go under the Interstate overpass.

From East:

  • Take I-40 West to the 5 th Ave. Exit.
  • Turn right onto Gill St. that is the second street to the right after coming off the ramp.
  • Follow Gill Street to the first traffic light and turn left. This will put you on Broadway.
  • Follow Broadway through the next two traffic lights. After you go through the second light, we are the last two buildings on the left in the next block. If you go under the Interstate overpass you have gone too far.
