Starting at 8 a.m., First Assembly Church at 3401 25th St. S., and Hope Lutheran Church, South Campus, 3636 25 St. S., will be the primary shuttle points for volunteers to be deployed to south side dike-building sites, according to a news release.
Overflow parking is available at Gethsemane Episcopal Cathedral, and volunteers can walk next door to Hope Lutheran to catch a bus.
