Speedway Clean Team
Our Speedway Clean Team meets once a month to clean up the litter that plagues the roadsides along Speedway Blvd. If you are interested in helping to pick up the litter you are welcome to join them during any of their clean-up days! You do not need to be a church member.
September's still hot but it was cool in the morn,
The Clean Team was out and their green vests were worn.
Jan, Sally, Connie, Marlys, and Lynn weren't sure what they'd see,
After 2 months off who knows how much trash there would be.
It wasn't too bad for being away for awhile,
We managed to clean up both sides of our Speedway mile.
It took just an hour to clean it all up,
Each piece of cardboard, bottle, box, napkin and cup.
A new homeless camp sprouted up since we were out,
But it's the only one now that's on our route.
It's tucked under bushes and trees where it's not easily seen,
It shouldn't take long to get it all clean.
October 14th at 7:00 a.m. is the next time we meet,
You are invited to join us if you want to help clean up the street.

Casa Maria Sandwiches
Once a month volunteers gather in the CPH Brady Library to assemble sandwiches to donate to the Casa Maria Soup Kitchen. Meetings are generally held on the second Tuesday of each month and begin at 8am. The sandwiches and other donations of clothing, toiletries, and other items, are then delivered to Casa Maria by our dedicated volunteers. If you would like to help assemble sandwiches please watch this page for the next scheduled date. If you would like to donate sandwich items (bread, lunchmeat, or cheese) those can be dropped off at the CPH office during our regular Mon-Thurs business hours. You are also welcome to drop off other items for donation to Casa Maria during our Mon-Thurs business hours.
Our amazing volunteers lovingly crafted 575 sandwiches on Tuesday, September 12th!
The next meeting will be on Tuesday, October 10th at 8am.
