I just received this letter and felt it important enough to share. As the mom of a 14 year old, I think it is great that this project is finally getting off the ground. As it has been said... "it takes a village." I'm hoping that some of the good people of Manalapan show their community spirit and step up to give Arlene a hand. MANALAPAN COMMUNITY CENTER Update February 11, 2009 Hello, I am very pleased to announce that after many years of trying to raise money to construct a building to be used for our children and our families, the Manalapan Township Committee will be allowing us the use of an existing building to use as a community center. However, this building is in need of much renovation. To this end, the Community Center Committee is looking for volunteers to help with these renovations. First, and foremost, we are in need of a licensed plumber and a licensed electrician who would be willing to volunteer their time to help create a safe environment for the children. We also need someone to assist our general contractor (who is already volunteering time). Lastly, anyone who would be willing to volunteer some time in other areas such as demolition & construction, cleaning and painting would be welcomed and appreciated. Once the building is up and running, we will be looking for volunteers that we can call on to supervise and chaperone events. If you are interested in helping in any way, please contact Arlene White at (732) 536-8727 or MCCCommittee@gmail.com. Thank you, Arlene White

Hopefully this gets in front of many eyes ... it would be a great project for maybe you and your peers to help out at, or a local high school. :)
That is great news for your area Joanna - Congrats!
It's nice to see people come together for a worthwhile cause.
I'll be curious to see which job you pick to help with.
: )
Tony - I think I will pick the job to help get the word out that we need help! I've already posted it across all my social networks. I admit it, I'm a "white collar" volunteer!
JoAnna,
You must be so proud of your community! I have never been to Manalapan but after reading so many of your localism posts, it is now on my list.
Have a fabulous Friday!
Cherimie
