Alexis Swann, who said she was willing to get dirty at
Day of Caring this year, gets down with kitchen grease.

"My name is Sabrina Anderson and I approved this picture."
Sabrina also tackled the kitchen and its many fingerprints.

With a broom handle and a prayer, Mike Jakubowski knocks down one of several wasp nests on our indoor toddler playground, risking himself to protect our smallest students!

Sherry Thacker and Kris Bevins munch on pizza after a long morning of cleaning our outdoor storage sheds! Their hard work really showed in the now-pristine and organized storage.

Tiffany Smilor, an expectant mom herself, gets in some hands-on practice while helping entertain our adorable mobile infants.

The Worker Bees class really took to Billie Ackerman, who read stories and did the "beanbag dance" with these 3-year-olds. In fact, Billie stayed past Day of Caring hours and didn't leave until most DHCDC employees were heading home! What dedication!
