SOROPTIMIST INTERNATIONAL of OAKDALE “S” CLUB ACTIVITY

On October 30, the Oakdale “S” Club had 30 students come dressed in costume to trick or treat non-perishables. They collected over 800 cans and donated 400 of them to the Spirit of Oakdale committee to give away on Thanksgiving Day at the community dinner. The remaining 400 went to Community Sharing.

Other activities include:

• Babysitting every Thursday at the Family Support Network
• Twenty-five students signed up to become Junior Auxiliary members of Oak Valley Hospital. There is quite a rigorous application process, but some are in the midst of completing this and their orientation to become volunteers at the hospital.
• They will be making goodie bags on November 17 to distribute to people who must work on Thanksgiving. Crews are sent out on Thanksgiving morning to distribute the bags to firemen, police officers, hospital employees, store clerks, etc., that have to work on this day to say thank you for serving our community.
• On November 6 they helped with the Oakdale High Music Boosters Dinner/Dance and Auction.

This is a busy group of young people helping those in need in our community. SI Oakdale is proud to sponsor and support them in any way possible.
