>> Each year there is a discussion about whether or not the club will do it

>> 
>> You can help in a number of ways:
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> Fish Fry:  It is a little late in the season, but the last fish fry for
>> this year is this Saturday, September 8 from 5-7.  All you can eat fish,
>> fries, homemade cole slaw, homemade desserts and drinks.  All for only $8.
>> Take-out also available.  Slusser’s Chapel, 1543 Mt. Tabor Road,

>> Come and eat, and tell your friends!  The more folks who come, the more
>> funds the club can sow back in to the community.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> Volunteer for a couple of hours.  There are many roles that need to be
>> filled.  (Most involve standing.)  The main shifts that need to be covered
>> are from 4-6 or 7 and 5-7 or 8.  This is a huge help to an already-tired
>> group of dedicated workers.  As an added bonus, you get to eat for FREE
>> when you volunteer!  If you can help, please let Cindy Turner know when you
>> will be available.  You can reach her at 540-577-0891
>> orcturner at memorialgardensnrv.com.  If you get free at the last minute,
>> just show up.  Your help will still be very valuable and greatly
>> appreciated.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> Apple Butter:  The club makes apple butter every fall.  This is a majorly
>> labor-intensive undertaking.  A few folks could help with cutting apples
>> (There is a chopper device – no knives.  Super simple!)  for a couple of
>> hours on Wednesday, September 26 and October 3 around 1:00 or 2:00 at

>> 
>> The real labor need comes at the cannery (in Wytheville).  Club members
>> are there from about 6AM until about 3 or 4 PM.  It is a VERY long day.
>> There are actually two half-day shifts, but there aren’t usually enough
>> workers to avoid having to work the full day.  This work is mostly
>> standing, but there are various labor levels, and there is time for
>> sit-down breaks in between the different tasks.  From 6-9 there is heaving
>> lifting while unloading the apples.  Lighter work comes during that time
>> while washing the apples.  From 11-1, the empty jars, lids and rings are
>> being steamed.  That is light lifting in transferring the empty jars.  From
>> 1-4 filling the jars and placing the lids, rings and labels on them is
>> light work.  Strong backs (preferably fresh backs that have not been there
>> since 6AM) are needed again from 2-4 for moving the cases of filled jars
>> out of the way, loading them onto carts and unloading them into cars.
>> Lunch is usually provided around noon.   This is a lot of work and a good
>> distance for someone to travel.  It is certainly understandable if you are
>> not available to help with this portion.  However, if you or someone you
>> know is looking for a fulfilling way to spend part of a Friday (even just a
>> couple of hours), please contact Cindy Turner at 540-577-0891 or
>> cturner at memorialgardensnrv.com.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> You can also help by purchasing you fall apple butter from the Mt. Tabor
>> Ruritan Club and telling your friends about it as well.  It is available in
>> two sizes (pints and quarts), two flavors (cinnamon and cinnamon & clove)
>> and two prices ($5/pint or $7/quart).  The quart is obviously the better
>> deal, and the pint is a great gift/stocking stuffer option.  The pints are
>> also popular among the folks who think they will never finish a quart, but
>> this stuff lasts forever.    Please contact Cindy Turner for fulfilling
>> your apple butter needs as well.  Delivery is certainly an option.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> Many thanks for any participation you may be able to provide, and know
>> that it is understood if you cannot.
