And so much more

Please feel free to pass along my contact info: 773.6939, ext. 304 or k_mcdonough@yahoo.com to discuss your event plans.
The success of Lodge 188 is, in part, due to a wonderful support team of VOLUNTEERS! We are in need of volunteers for the following:
Dinner Cashier on Wednesday or Friday nights, 3:45—6 pm
Kitchen Waitress on Wednesday nights, 4—6 pm
3 Card Challenge Callers or Shufflers for Wednesday and Friday nights, 5:30-7 pm
Bingo Kitchen on Tuesdays, 10 am - 2 pm
Sign volunteer—we have purchased a new street sign located on Congress Street that needs lettering changed once a week; schedule flexible
For more information on any of these opportunities, or to discuss your availability, please contact Kim Toppi at 207.329.0845.
We hope to see you sometime soon at Lodge 188.
