Then they come out in force with their opinion, wanting to be heard, wanting a say. I don't think there's any way out of it. I've been involved in a variety of organizations all my life and that's the way it always is. As far as the Library goes, people should try to get to those meetings at an early stage so their voices can be heard. It's very exciting and a great opportunity to have input. You can tell they are really listening to the community! It’s a feature of human nature that many people don’t get involved in things until the last moment–after other people have done tons of work.

I know that many of the schools send children on gleaning outings as part of community service. Perhaps your friend can contact a local food pantry or school to get the organizations' names.
