Summer Classic = Community Service
Volunteers bring the Summer Classic to life The Summer Classic is a St. Mark’s work of love. Members of the parish work together to welcome members of our wider community who help support the community service work St. Mark’s sponsors year by year. Our volunteers make all the difference. Please contact Linda Burrows at 805-688-7423 if you want to lend a hand before, during or after this important event that makes so much possible for so many people.

Volunteer Opportunity welcomes you Do you have a free hour once a month to help serve our wider community? Every Monday throughout the year (52 Mondays including Monday holidays) St. Mark’s has a team of volunteers that deliver hot lunches to our area homebound. Our team delivers Route 1 which covers the Solvang area. The route takes about an hour and meals are picked up at around 11 am from Atterdag Village. We are in need of new volunteer drivers. A volunteer typically does the route once a month or every other month. Please contact Billy Hurbaugh (text or call 805-245-4099) for more information or to sign up.
