On Thursday, May 8, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints donated 18 pallets or 27,691 lbs of food to be split between the Calvary Episcopal Food Pantry in Fletcher and Meals on Wheels of Asheville & Buncombe County. The donated food included pallets of staples such as shelf-stable milk, canned fruit, rice, pasta, peanut butter, pinto beans, white flour, and potato flakes, as well as 112 boxes of assorted nutritional staple food items. Volunteers at each of these organizations worked together to arrange and facilitate this donation.They were joined by additional helpers from the Army Recruiting Company of Asheville's Asheville Office, Hendersonville Office, and Company Leadership Team to unload the shipment at the Calvary Episcopal Food Pantry. Half the food was then sorted out and loaded onto other trucks to deliver to the Meals on Wheels office. The organizations also wish to thank Mr. Sammy Johnson of Fletcher Lawn and Garden Hardware for housing the donation temporarily in their warehouse and having it delivered in one of his trucks. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints encourages its members to participate in community service regularly, and seeks to facilitate volunteer work in the wider community by running a free website and app called JustServe.org. People looking for volunteer opportunities like those mentioned in this article may simply type in their zip code at that site to find projects nearby. And organizations seeking volunteers can create and administer projects for free through the same service. Anyone interested in using the JustServe tools may contact Steve Stay at steven.thomas.stay@gmail.com

Hi, all!

I am a dental hygiene student at A-B Tech. I would like to extend an offer to pay for two patient(s) scaling and root planing ("deep cleaning") procedures and x-rays (if needed). This will take place at the A-B Tech Dental Clinic.

A flexible schedule is required, as this will take multiple appointments. I have availability on some Tuesdays but primarily Thursdays. Appointments are 2 1/2 hours each, sometimes less. If you have been told you need a deep cleaning, if you have a significant amount of built up calculus and/or have not been to a dentist in years this would be a perfect opportunity for you-- deep cleanings can be incredibly pricey.

*Note: As this is a dental hygiene clinic, we cannot assist you with extractions, restorative work, etc.

Please reach out and send me a message if you or anyone you know is interested in this opportunity! As stated, I will be unable to take more than two patients. Thank you for your time!

I was on the way home from work, after the traffic light, before Fletcher Hills. Bunch of Fletcher police, som in tac gear, some with ARs out at a house on the left side. Any idea what's happening?
