Check out the incredible teamwork on display today! Our Forest Lake Fire Department and Public Works crews successfully rescued an osprey that had become entangled in fishing line high in a tree over Forest Lake.

Thanks to the quick response, skill, and dedication of everyone involved, this magnificent bird was safely rescued. Outstanding work by all and a great example of our teams going above and beyond to serve both our community and local wildlife! πŸ¦…πŸ‘

β€œWe get to know the people we drive, especially the ones we drive over and over. They are connections that are truly impactful to both sides. I love driving for Community Thread.”

Right now, many older adults in our community need safe and reliable transportation β€” and volunteer drivers are urgently needed to help meet that growing need.

Through Community Thread’s Ride Services program, Volunteer Drivers provide more than just a ride. They help neighbors get to medical appointments, grocery stores, and other essential destinations while also offering something just as important: connection and care.

Could you lend a hand behind the wheel?

Join one of our Volunteer Driver Info Sessions to learn how flexible and rewarding this opportunity can be. Even a few hours of your time can make a meaningful difference for a neighbor in need.

πŸ“ June 17 at 3:30pm | Oakdale Public Library
