Feed the Hungry Update

At the meeting on January 14th we got many things accomplished. We were able to finalize the menu, make a list of everything we needed and came up with names of companies we thought might be willing to donate them.

The Event

The tentative dates we have are March 4th or 11th, 2009. That day we will be getting together at around 3am to cook the meal. Once it's all done, packed and ready to go we will divide into two or three groups and go to various locations to hand everything out. I created a map with the locations that we are looking at for now visit this link to view the map: http://www.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=112052920669081083431.000460eb2d292f16df67b&ll=39.104755,-94.575119&spn=0.199545,0.307617&z=12&iwloc=000460ebff0656a5202e8.
