Several Wilkes-Barre teens transformed the Mineral Springs community room
into an Italian restaurant Friday night as they prepared dinner for their
parents.
The teens participate in programs organized by Eric Morales and Ron
Filippini at the community room. Morales and Filippini are members of the
Volunteers in Service to America program, part of the Americorps National
Service project.
They spent the last few years establishing homework clubs, teen groups,
acting clubs and other community events.
Morales said he and Filippini are seeking volunteers to help at the center
or organize activities. To volunteer or for more information about the Mineral
Springs community program, call 819-0317 or 824-9981.
