3.) What Would Leading/Assisting with Recreational Time Look Like?:

Preparing an activity (of their choosing) with the understanding that participation is voluntary. It could be 100% participation and it could be 0% and that is perfectly fine. You are more than welcome to email ideas to the Community Center staff for feedback. The weather, size of the group, and personalities are a few of the many factors that dictate the afternoon needs and interests. The women often enjoy recreation activities, so we do our best to remain realistic in terms of what we can do with the resources we have! 

Examples: A cold, rainy afternoon could result in tired ladies who would enjoy a quiet movie with popcorn. A sunny, warm afternoon might include sitting outside or participating games on the lawn. A laid back, quiet group might enjoy adult coloring to relax. Simple crafts usually spark interest in the ladies (or so we have found in the past). Games, such as bingo are often a big hit in our community center as well!

Volunteer: Fill-In Volunteer

Safe Harbor is looking for volunteers who are willing to go above and beyond serving the women in our ministry. Unfortunately, life happens and sometimes regularly scheduled volunteers are unable to make it in for their scheduled time slots and this leaves the ladies we serve in a bit of a "pinch" as most of the ladies' plans are already put in place days in advance. The right volunteers for these "fill in" opportunities would be willing to be flexible and serve on more of an on call basis rather than a set schedule.
