Last Saturday a few members of the Aloha Church of God Youth Group volunteered at the Oregon Food Bank. It was actually a lot more fun than I thought it would be, something about working is very calming. We scooped out two pounds of oatmeal from an eighteen hundred pound bag and then tied it and put it in a box. For the first thirty minuets of our two hour shift I helped Garth and a man named Darell (I think this is the correct spelling) with making boxes. I was then recruited into scooping because the team was one short, I used two cups to scoop rather than one to make it a bit faster and soon after a few other people did as well. On the top middle it shows how many people we fed how many meals were served and how many pounds were served, we served 311 people each!
The best three things about working there were A, the good feeling B, the hairnets and C, the fun. I would definitely recommend volunteering there whenever you can, the fun more than pays for the work, you could pay twenty dollars on a trip to the movies for two hours of entertainment or you could help others and get even more fun. That was certainly a good Saturday!
