Hi all,
Grassroots Two dropped off their barrel this week. We have just ten days to
let people know it’s here to fill up for their Thanksgiving dinner for
those in need on Wednesday, 11/22. Please read the script attached at least
once per shift (more if you can) between now and 3pm on 11/21. The script
is also below and in the studios.
Also, please bring something to put in the barrel, if you are able.
Thanks!
Marisa

Also, if you’re here when anyone rings the bell with stuff for the barrel
