What's Happening at St. Paul's
Shower Driver
For insurance purposes, all drivers must get a copy of their driving record from the Department of Motor Vehicles and submit it to IHN prior to driving the van. The cost is less than $3.00. Give your record to Monte or the IHN office. You may also use your personal vehicle if only a few are going.
Arrive at St. Paul's approximately 7:00 PM to pick up the van. Warm the van prior to leaving if it is cold outside. Record the trip start mileage in the log book. Meet guests and ask if they are wanting to go to the showers and that you are their driver. Make sure dinner and clean up is complete before going to the showers. The showers are located at the YMCA 1 mile west of 20th and Kipling. Make sure that all infants are in child seats and everyone has seatbelts fastened. Stay at the YMCA and wait for the families to finish then bring them back to the Church. Make sure you log your trip miles in the log book. You should be done by about 8:30PM.
