Drivers Needed Meals on WheelsWe had a great response from our September Service Newsletter for Meals on Wheels volunteers. The first training session is Oct. 13th. In case you missed, 7 MOW route out of the Roswell center that operate and deliver meals each weekday Monday-Friday. A typical route has anywhere from 4 to 8 stops, so you’re delivering to 4 to 8 seniors, and lasts about 1.5 hours on average. The routes take place right before lunchtime, with most meals being picked up at the center between 10:00 and 11:00am each day. Most volunteers, whether individuals or groups, sign up to do a route usually once per month. If interested in delivering meals for this very important program contact Mary Trapp marytrapp@kw.com 770-645-1320
