The Daily Bruin

Please take note of the Bruin Bookstore’s hours for the summer. We will be open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and closed Friday through Sunday.

Come help out at the Newberg Peace Garden, which will help supply the Bruin Community Pantry with fresh produce. Here is when you can help:

• Today (Thursday), from 4:30 to 7 p.m.
• Saturday, May 3, from 9 a.m. to noon

We will be planting hedges and building raised beds both days. This is a tangible way to care for our neighbors and steward the resources of creation. Meet us at the garden, which is directly behind the Newberg First Presbyterian Church. Any amount of time you can give will help us finish this project.

First, please be sure to lock your timesheets once you are finished working your last shift in April. This will prevent any delays on your May paycheck.
