Free CARE Clinic Tacoma Dome: Just back

[The Blue Flower]

Wow, I just got back from volunteering at the all-day CARE Clinic. The organizers from the Association of Free Clinics did a masterful job of organizing the community--there were 1200 volunteers. My feet and knees gave out, so I left at the end of my six-hour shift, as the second shift was arriving. They'll be going until 8 pm. At the end of the second hour, we were on patient number 600, so things were moving along quite smoothly. It was a tremendous experience, and I met some great people. Not too late to go if you need medical attention and don't have insurance.
