*Congratulations to the McKendree CPS for being named to the President's Community Service Honor Roll for the second year in a row!  Click here to learn more!*

*Notices*
--McCat's annual Into the Streets is on Saturday, August 23rd.  This annual highlight of Orientation affords students an opportunity to serve our neighbors in our local community. In this experience, participants will learn about the diverse populations in the area, deepen new college friendships and have a lot of fun in the process.

        --Clothing: Due to the nature of the work, participants should wear: Into the
          Streets T-shirt (provided to every participant), old blue jeans or shorts, athletic
          or hiking shoes. Please do not wear sandals.

        --Lunch: A complimentary sack lunch will be provided to participants. If you have
          specific dietary needs please let us know ASAP.

        --Transportation: Groups will be transported to the service sites by bus. Buses
           will load in the circle drive at the fountain.  Boarding begins at 7:45am.

        --Commuter Students: Commuter students not from the immediate area should

           bring an extra set of clothes and toiletries.  Showering facilities in MPCC will
           be available if needed after Into the Streets.

--We are collecting empty ink cartridges to be disposed of properly.  This is not only an easy way for you to get rid of something unwanted; it helps the environment by not being disposed of improperly.  If you have, or know of, any empty ink cartridges, please bring them to the CPS.  Tell your family, friends, co-workers, etc. The more cartridges the better!
