Quincy Salvation Army

The River Roads Chapter of the Harley Owners Group (HOG) is organizing a Christmas Toy Run to benefit the Quincy and Hannibal Salvation Army’s 2012 Christmas Toy Program. The Quincy Toy Run will start at 10:00am on Saturday, November 17th when the riders will group at the TNT Dealership at 52nd and Oak in Quincy.

The Salvation Army is hiring bell ringers for the upcoming 2012 Christmas campaign season in order to make sure that all kettle locations are manned consistently throughout the Red Kettle Campaign. The positions are considered part-time, temporary, and applicants must be available from the “First Day of Kettles”, November 16th, through December 24th.

On Saturday, September 22, the Kroc Center in Quincy will hold an open house celebration of their one year anniversary.  The entire Kroc Center will be open to the public from 7am till 8pm.  During the open house time, the public may use all areas of the Kroc Center free of charge including the fitness equipment and Aquatic Center.  Free rock climbing will be available from noon to 5pm.

The Quincy Salvation Army will open the Kroc Center and Family Services Office as Cooling Centers on days when heat advisories are issued for the area.

Here's an update on the Salvation Army's Fan Program that I shared with you a few weeks back.
