Community members ages 55 and over and looking for more opportunities to remain active while serving the community have the C.E.F.S RSVP Community Action Team looking for them. RSVP stands for Retired Senior Volunteer Program and RSVP Manager, Kim Shelmadine, says any number of volunteer jobs not only help the community but also the overall health of the volunteer.

Shelmadine explains that volunteers will have the freedom to choose the times and types of work they participate in.

The heartwarming Pencil Pal Program connects RSVP volunteers to area school children who will write back and forth throughout the year, an end-of-the-year banquet allows those pals to meet face to face creating a very special evening.
