Hospice Volunteers of Waldo County are planning to bake 20 apple pies as prizes for the 5k on October 4. However, our baking volunteers discovered that enough apples would set our fundraiser back hundreds of dollars at current market prices. We are now looking for donations of apples. We can pick up or even pick pie-worthy apples. Thank you! Contact Flic at 505-4434 or waldohospicevolunteers@gmail.com
