LLCC will be hosting a clothing drive organized by RISE Springfield, a young professionals networking group of The Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce.

Students and members of the public looking to update their professional wardrobe can stop by the clothing drive on Saturday, Oct. 14 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Trutter Center.

If you are looking to donate quality (clean, gently-used, no holes or stains), professional clothing, you can drop it off Sept. 25-Oct. 4 at one of the following locations.

• Springfield Lucky Horseshoes (1415 N. Grand Ave. East, Mon-Fri, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.)
• Express Employment Professionals (3000 Professional Dr., Mon-Fri, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.)

To volunteer the weekend of the drive, email Bailey.Woolsey@lrs.com to sign up for a shift.

Faculty and staff interested in participating in Arts After Hours (AAH), formerly known as On My Own Time, are reminded that today is the deadline to submit your entry forms and fees to the LLCC coordinator (Misty Schierer). Artwork is due to Misty by Monday, Oct. 16.

LLCC’s in-house exhibit will be featured on the LLCC-Springfield campus in October/November (dates to be announced soon). The artist of the favorite piece at LLCC will win the LLCC People’s Choice Award and receive a $100 Visa gift card courtesy of the Philip and Mary Kathryn Trutter Museum.

This unique program provides LLCC faculty and staff an opportunity to display original art they have created outside the office. There will be an in-house exhibit at LLCC followed by a city-wide exhibit showcasing first place award-winning artwork from all participating businesses, agencies and institutions. The fee assists SAAC with costs of the AAH program.

All are welcome to join LLCC’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s team for a fun and engaging lunch. Here’s how it works:

• Join us today, Sept. 20, at noon in Millennium, Room 2203.
• Bring a brown bag lunch (feel free to get creative and decorate your bag while also listing any allergies like nuts, gluten, citrus, etc.).
• When you arrive to the event, add your brown bag lunch to the others on the table and grab a number.
• Once everyone arrives, each person gets to pick a bag not knowing what is in it. You can either eat what is in your bag, or trade with another person (kind of like elementary school when you traded with your friends).
• If you feel inclined, donate the money you saved from not going out to lunch that day to a charity. We are biased, but we love LLCC’s Team Loggers supporting the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s®!

Any questions? Reach out to Leslie Johnson at leslie.johnson@llcc.edu.
