Vestavia Hills Troops Spook Up Ronald McDonald House


Vestavia Hills Junior Troop 27 and Cadette Troop 145 spent Saturday morning decorating the Ronald McDonald House for halloween. Twelve girls, two siblings, and plenty of moms dressed up the house in black cats, pumpkins, witches hats and brooms. Afterwards, they enjoyed a picnic lunch and hula hooping at Birmingham's new Railroad Park.

The volunteer opportunity was made possible by Hands On Birmingham. They're a GREAT resource for finding local community service projects!

The Ronald McDonald House says they're always looking for groups to come in and help. Opportunities includes:

* making dinner for residents
* decorating for the holidays
* hosting a special event (i.e. ice cream social, game night, etc)

According to Inez (weekend supervisor and tour host extraordinaire!), "The only limit is your imagination! We love to have people come down and volunteer!"
