The Kitchen Committee wants to thank everyone for their efforts in keeping our refrigerators and freezer so much nicer. Keeping them cleared out really helps limit waste, clutter, as well as possible Health Department concerns. So if you use those appliances, please continue to:
·Use a sticky dot to label the group you’re associated with. These dots can be found in top drawer to the right of the refrigerator.
·Put on a date on the sticker.
·If you had altar flowers, please get them from refrigerator within two days.
Unlabeled items will be thrown away.
