COVID 19 Precautions: In order to pack meals safely, all volunteers will be screened with questions prior to admission to the event. Volunteers are strongly encouraged to wear a mask throughout the event regardless of vaccination status. Hand-washing stations will be available. All volunteers will need to register on-line in advance. No walk- ins will be accepted due to shift limits of volunteers which is necessary for social distancing.
