Afton, Virginia
As we told you last week, members of UVa’s Alpha Phi Omega – The University’s only coed service fraternity – began work on the old Rockfish School building as part of its community service project. Though it rained nearly 2 inches during the first part Saturday, about 100 volunteers from APO showed up to work.
RVCC was chosen as the fraternity’s Fall service project, which means the Community Center is getting lots of needed repairs and improvements, like a courtyard, painting the entrances, putting in a sidewalk for the treasure chest and more.
The group will be back to finish up the project in the coming days as weather permits. Thanks to APO for this fantastic and valuable contribution to RVCC!
This weekend I had the pleasure of seeing the army of Alpha Phi Omega invade RVCC and work very hard at various tasks. The group was couteous and seemed to be having a good time while achieving some real results.Thanks so much for helping out!
