Service Club Donation Center Expansion: Thanks to the ongoing support of the POC Community, the Service Club has been able to expand our Donation Center (which is located immediately behind the POC Community Center Pavilion), nearly doubling its size and storage capacity! The expansion will increase our ability to store medical equipment and supplies (walkers, wheelchairs, shower chairs, crutches, knee scooters, etc.), which we loan to POC citizens who are in need. The additional space will also allow us to accept donations of furniture starting in June.

Scholarship Recipient: The Club is immensely proud to announce that POC resident and 2024 Calhoun High School Senior, Kayla Hall, has been awarded a $1,000.00 Service Club Scholarship for her years of hard work and academic achievement. Congratulations and best wishes to Kayla as she pursues her college education!

Farmers Market: The Club appreciates your ongoing support of our Service Club Booth at POC’s Farmers Markets, the next one being Saturday, June 8, 2024 from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 Noon. We will be selling a new cookbook, Oldies But Goodies, which features “Dessert Recipes” from past Service Club members who are featured in our End of the Road Cookbooks Please also come check out our homemade baked goods, potted plants, hand crafted items, Service Club Cookbooks“, “POC- End of The Road” License Plate Covers, and raffle tickets of $5.00 each for beautiful handmade quilts. There is something for everyone, so please stop by!
