While there are food pantries to turn to, this is meant to be a special night-out where people can find not just food, but a home-cooked meal and camaraderie with people who care. We are expecting over 100 guests for our upcoming dinner and we need your help to set up, clean up, serve or to simply make our guests feel welcome. We are also looking for volunteers to provide various food items for the dinner. A Sign-Up Genius will be sent in the next few weeks with details on how you can help. This is a great opportunity to help serve those in need in our community and we know you will find it rewarding. Please direct any questions you may have to Kim Brigman at brigmankb@yahoo.com.	30
