Community Booth: For 30 years, Store To Door has been shopping for and delivering groceries to hundreds of elderly adults in the Twin Cities metro area each week, helping them continue to live independently in their own homes.  As a non-profit, volunteers are critical to the mission by helping to take grocery orders over the phone and doing the shopping for clients at the store.  Please stop by to learn more about the organization, or visit http://www.storetodoor.org/.
