We will be staffing a shift from 9-12. The Food Bank provides a short
training program and then it is off to the races. Each of us will be assign
a responsiblity - sorting, packing, weighing and moving food. It is a
fun time with lots of chatting & laughing. The results are amazing and
you will certainly feel as though our team helped make a difference!
Parking: There is a small parking lot to the left of
the building (if facing the building from the street). There is plenty
of safe on-street parking as well.
Breakfast: Thanks to Eileen Imada for her help in soliciting
bagel and coffee donations for the event. WE STILL NEED JUICE, CREAM CHEESE,
PAPER CUPS & A FRUIT PLATE - I will plan to bring all of this unless someone
volunteers to solicit donations or bring themselves?!
Lunch: There is an casual lunch planned at the Victoria
Diner which is walking distance from the GBFB. Everyone enjoyed the company
and the food last year - it's a great time to meet more friends and catch
up with old friends.

wear any open toed shoes.
