CARITAS at Reveille Beginning July 20
Volunteers, towels, DVDs, and
magazines are still needed
The Reveille family will welcome as many as 40 adult men from CARITAS (Congregations Around Richmond Involved To Assure Shelter) from July 20-27, and we need your help. There are THREE big ways you can participate:
- Help set up cots Saturday morning, July 20, or break down cots Saturday morning, July 27. Eight people are needed. To volunteer, please contact Gretchen Biernot at gwbiernot@hanovercounty.gov.
- Donate new and gently-used towels, DVDs (rated PG-13 or below), or magazines by dropping them off near the elevator on the red carpet.
- Sign up to volunteer one night. We need volunteers to prepare and serve dinner, pack lunches, visit with the men in the evening, or stay overnight (in a private room, always with a CARITAS staff person on site). Join one of the groups listed below on a day that works for you by contacting the volunteer in charge of that night.

Summer Book Review:
Local author comes to Reveille this Wednesday
On Wednesday, July 24, local author and VCU professor Walter S. Griggs Jr. will be at Reveille to discuss his book The Collapse of Richmond's Church Hill Tunnel. In the aftermath of the Civil War, Richmond's railroads were a lifeline in reconstruction efforts, but this tunnel, completed in December 1873, was soon rendered obsolete. In 1925, an effort to renovate and reopen it met with dire results, chronicled in this book.
Griggs has worked at the VCU School of Business for more than 30 years, teaching history, business law, and honors courses, and he is known for his keen sense of humor (read the student reviews of his class online). His previous books include Hidden History of Richmond and A Moose's History of North America.
Refreshments will be served in the welcome center at 10:30 am, and the book review begins at 11:00 am in the chapel. Child care is available.
