We have large gaps during the busiest time (after school until 8 pm) that have no volunteers or only one. We've made the shifts only half an hour long so perhaps people with just a little time can take part, For those that can take a longer shift, please sign up for whatever time you are available. We can't do this without you!Thank you!!Marion Hobbs
