>                                       FIG Soup and Chili Supper
>
>     The Food Initiatives Group will be holding their first soup/ 
> chili supper on January 23rd from 4-6:30 PM at the Presbyterian  
> Church at 400 E. Carroll St ( the entrance is on Dudley). Everyone  
> is invited, and we have made a special effort to invite folks from  
> Loaves and Fishes and WIRC . There will be no charge for the  
> dinner, but we hope to receive donations to help cover our costs  
> from some of those attending or wanting to sponsor the event. If  
> you attend the supper and want to contribute, we suggest a $5.00  
> donation per meal which you can give to Holly Stovall, Janice  
> Welsch or Jamie Lane after you have eaten.
>     The menu is set. We will be serving chili, chicken/noodle soup,  
> squash soup and vegetable soup with 200 guests as a target number.  
> We will also serve rolls, corn bread, and apple crisp. Drinks will  
> be coffee, tea or water. Copies of the soup recipes will be available.
>     Holly Stovall is in charge of organizing workers...you probably  
> received her recent email. We are looking for numerous hands for  
> food preparation to help chop and stir where needed. E-mail Holly  
> (ha-stovall @wiu.edu)  if you are interested in helping. She can  
> tell you if and when we still need more help. The kitchen is large  
> and beautiful...a joy to work in.
>     We are also hoping to have several educational tables...such as  
> pictures of Joel's pool garden, maybe a demo of growing sprouts,  
> info about the future community gardens, and maybe handing out an  
> herb plant (possibly Basil?),. All of this is in the planning stage  
> and we're open to ideas and volunteers.
>      We hope to see you on the 23rd as a helper if possible, or at  
> least as a diner.
