Tuesday's Table - March 9th
Spring Hill fed 225 people on January 12th through Tuesday's Table. This Greene County Ministry is a partnership of churches throughout the community. Every Tuesday a hot meal is served to those in need of food, companionship or fellowship at Stanardsville United Methodist Church. Spring Hill will again provide the meal March 9th. We will need volunteers to cook, serve and clean up.
Please contact  Mary Buckner if you can help.

Habitat House
The Greene County chapter of Habitat for Humanity hosted a home dedication ceremony, September 19th. Spring Hill partnered with Habitat, local churches, businesses and volunteers to help bring the home to completion. Proceeds raised fom our 2nd Annual Tour de Greene bike ride were given to Habitat to help fund the house.
The Stitchers Club that meets at Spring Hill each Tuesday morning presented the new owners with a beautiful homemade quilt for their new home. The next family has been chosen and work has begun on funding the next Habitat House.

Gene Arnold Memorial 10k Run Recap
The Gene Arnold Memorial 10K Run was held Saturday, September 19th at Meriwether Lewis Elementary School. It was a beautiful morning for a race! Over 500 runners participated to help raise money for the Area 3 Special Olympics. Spring Hill sent dozens of people to run in the race, volunteer and serve as encouragement to those that crossed the finish line. It was a great way to honor Gene, a true mentor and friend to those with Special Needs.
