COURT HOUSE — The 41st annual luncheon for the RSVP volunteers was held on Sept. 24, 2015 at the Golden Inn in Avalon. The Cape May County Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) Recognition Luncheon is a special event celebrating the 41st year of RSVP and to recognize the contributions of 220 Senior Volunteers in Cape May County.
RSVP is part of Senior Corps, the largest volunteer network in the nation for people 55 and over. RSVP Senior Corps connects people with the organizations that need them the most. Volunteers receive guidance and training so they can make a contribution that suits their talents, interests, and availability. RSVP volunteers choose how, where, and how often they want to serve, with commitments ranging from a few hours to 40 hours per week. Service opportunities are as diverse as the communities in which volunteers serve and may include: assisting with reading and math readiness skills for pre-school students; assisting with emergency preparedness activities; assisting food pantries in providing food security to those in need; assisting vulnerable seniors in one of Cape May County’s Senior & Wellness Centers and many more.
Speakers at the event included Freeholder Director Gerald Thornton and Freeholder Kristine Gabor, Senator Jeff Van Drew, Assemblyman Sam Fiocchi and Assemblyman Bob Andrzejczak.
Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
