We need volunteers at Shelter Neck UU Camp for the next two Saturdays! November 3 and 10 to attempt to complete tearing out walls to prepare to sanitize and treat wood with a mold treatment! This must happen prior to lifting buildings and restoration. Your help will allow us to move our restoration forward so we can be of service to the areas so seriously impacted by Florence! Sign Up Here. Thank you from the Shelter Neck UU Camp Board

Thank you to Grace Raleigh Non Denominational Church Men for tearing out the wood panels in the Chapel today!!! What a gift! Also thank you to the Hamilton Family from Greensboro UU Congregation and the Community Church of Chapel Hill, Sam Moore from UUFR, Feryl Masters from The UU Fellowship of Greenville, and Susan Wasilewski of UUC Kinston! We appreciate everyone’s generous time! Yesterday was a busy day at Shelter Neck. Continued work on tearing out the walls at Dix House.
