Want to take your success, passion and joy to new levels? Ready to make your dreams a reality? Most people dream big ... but end up sabotaging their own success with self-limiting beliefs and behaviors. "How to Get More from Life," a free mini seminar offered by local non-profit Foundations, helps you identify ways you’re sabotaging your own success and offers practical tips for achieving greater potential. Walk-ins welcome. Contact Kondi Kulisewa at 503-522-6526 or kondi@foundations1.com with questions.

** Pleas Note that when this sign-up sheet was originally made, times listed for Sunday's were not correct. They will by 10:00 - 1:00, not 9:00 - 12:00. If you had signed up for a 9:00 - 12:00 shift on a Sunday you don't actually need to be there until 10am. If this is a problem, and doesn't work with your schedule, let someone in community service know and we'll try and work you in somewhere. There are still open time slots for the other weekends.**
Haunted House helps the community
Our club put together the biggest hanted house that the Walla Walla valley has seen in decades, rivaling the famed JC events! We want to thank every single person that assisted with this fundraiser and community service event from the hands within the club to the assistance from private members outside the club! We want to thank the many local businesses for coming together and providing many of the items we needed to put this haunted house on and making the community that much closer!
We saw nearly 2,000 people come through our dreary doors and most of them had the courage to finish the spooky maze of maniacal madness! Each of our 20 scenes were widely discussed, often while the victim was watching behind them to ensure that nothing was coming after them!
With this 2,000 people, PBL managed to raise quite a bit of money. After paying for the debts incurred on this event and providing a small amount to the club for future events, PBL found themselves dividing up $8,000 to the following causes (which was approved by the club in this morning's meeting):
$2,000 - College scholarships for business students within our community college
$1,500 - Literacy programs in our elementary schools
$500 - Valley Residential Services
$500 - March of Dimes
$500 - divided to 10 families in difficult situations for a better Christmas.
The companies that helped were many and each provided assistance to getting our haunted house off the ground in some manner or another. These companies are listed here:
