You bet! Volunteers are needed to help us get our feet on the ground. Do you like rocking a baby? How about reading to a child? Do you like to participate in arts and crafts? If you can answer yes to any of these, we need your help! The Dunkerton Child Learning Center is inviting community members to participate in a variety of activities at the Center. If you are interested in having fun with young children, contact Dawn Best at 822-7883. As we kick off our Capital Campaign to fund the construction of a permanent facility, consider donating your time or money to help us meet our goal to be in a permanent facility by January 2007.
