On November 22, 2022 meals were prepared by the Burlington Food Shelf (now known as Feeding Chittenden) for Thanksgiving Day. The meal serves mostly people unable to afford or prepare their own meals. The meals were then set up to be served on November 23rd, the day before Thanksgiving. In total, about 8 hours were spent in preparing and another 4-6 hours the following day to serve the meal and then clean up. One Knight (Ray the Pie Man) from Council 7525 was involved with both the prep work and serving.

On 8/14 – 8/16, 2022 a handicap ramp was constructed at the Dennis residence in Georgia Ctr., VT. This project was coordinated through Age Well for an elderly client requiring a cane or walker and is expected to be confined to a wheelchair in the near future. The residence already had a ramp in place. However the ramp was dilapidated and not to construction code for a ramp (too steep). This old ramp was removed and replaced with a new structure (see photo) extending approximately 28. This project required 16 hours of work over three days to complete. One of the four Age Well volunteers is a Knight with Council 7525 in South Burlington. Total mileage driven over the two days was 138 miles.

The services that my wife Sandy and I provide for Age Well are delivering for Meals on Wheels and doing grocery shopping for shut-ins. One extra task that was completed included a move of furnishings for an elderly veteran. For the first quarter of 2021, we have logged almost 900 miles of travel, volunteered 123 hours and delivered about 150 meals.
