Thirteen volunteers from Rosemont College were on hand Thursday August 23^rd to help the KenCrest’s Rosemont Child Care Center with cleaning, handy work and classroom preparations to help create a fun and safe environment and experience for all of the children who attend.  These volunteers, mostly comprised of college Resident Directors, were getting their hands dirty scrubbing, and making sure the classrooms look fun and inviting when the children arrive.  Spirits were high as these enthusiastic volunteers decorated and cleaned the classrooms with pride.
