1 Morgan Place, Yellow Springs OH USA
Housing Options (sorry, no dorm space this time)
a) Go 'own plans' at area commercial accommodations (click here for a list with links)
or
b) Request assistance (via registration form) seeking accommodations in a dorm OR from a limited number of local alumni who have offered to make a room available.
Plan ahead: Yellow Springs is a popular tourist destination.
Generally, our meals will be at CSK (except "cooks' night off"), starting with breakfast Monday morning (coffee and cold breakfast offerings will be available at 7:30am; hot offerings available at 8:00am), followed at 9:00am by the organizational meeting for project tasking.
Volunteers have access to the Wellness Center & Olive Kettering Library.
Anti COVID protocols - while not "required," in consideration of your fellow volunteers please:
Get boosted for COVID (and flu while you are at it), if it's been a while since your last jab and you are able to do so, remembering it takes a couple of weeks to be fully effective.
Self-administer a home COVID test before travelling to YS.
If you are driving or renting a car and can offer local rides to others without a vehicle, please let us know.
If you need transportation from the airports or bus stations, retired longtime staff and volunteer Amy gives rides for a suggested donation from Dayton and Columbus. She's at (830) 353-7865 or amys125horserjrbrocks@gmail.com.
We look forward to seeing you in October! Early arriving volunteers usually meet at Ellie's for a no-host brunch on Sunday (10/18) morning at 10:30 am. Later, on Sunday evening, we will kick off with a welcome "SOCIAL HOUR" at 5:00 pm at the Coretta Scott King Center.
