Summer School Events

It's summertime!

  • Volunteer at Samaritan Inn Homeless Shelter.

  • Like baseball? Let's go to a Winston-Salem Dash game.
Details about volunteering at Samaritan Inn: you arrive at samaritan inn (near bojangles restaurant) at 6pm where you will get a brief orientation to the place. Then, you will help prepare the dinner & help serve it, sitting down to enjoy your own plate once all the homeless men have been served. Then, you help with clean up and dishes. That evening you hang out and chat with the men, play a board game or pingpong, then they have a prayer service that evening. They go to bed around 11pm. You can go to bed (in a separate area with other volunteers) or stay up to study. At some point  in the night, you do a 2 hour shift of sitting at the front desk with another volunteer. A paid staff person is next door to the desk asleep and only a push-button away from being at your side in case of trouble. You just watch TV monitors that show security cameras. Nothing really goes on during that 2 hours. Then, you go back to bed & get up around 6am to prepare breakfast, eat a little breakfast and you are back on campus by about 7:15am.
