John Aarhus -- ReStore Coordinator
John is our newest staff member. He comes to us
courtesy of the Concentrated Employment Program (CEP). He will be in charge of running our ReStore located in the quonset
located at Dahlstrom's Carpet Outlet, north on Highway 88 (Fir Avenue) just across the street from the Otter Tail County Humane
Society. In his free time he enjoys working out, lifting weights, and martial arts. He currently holds a black
belt in Tae Kwan Do. He is working towards two more black belts in other martial arts disciplines. John really enjoys
working for our affiliate because of the wide variety of work.
John will be handling donations
and sales at the warehouse. He is also working in the office on the volunteer database. He has been out on the
construction and A Brush With Kindness sites as well. Our intent is to make ReStore a self-supporting part of the affiliate.
John's work will help us towards that goal. Welcome John!
