Every day, I see people from our neighborhood – seniors, students, veterans and homeless people – turn to Loaves and Fishes for a hot, friendly, and filling meal. Loaves and fishes serves over one-hundred people a day, and over 32,000 meals a year.
The Diner Dash, September 11th at 6:30PM, is one way to raise the needed funds for this amazing place. It is a four mile race, beginning and ending near the Loaves and Fishes dining room at Lafayette Church, at 875 Elmwood Ave, and following the approximate route of the Subaru Chase (Bidwell, Chapin, Delaware, Summer, Elmwood). For those of you who want to participate, but can’t quite do four miles, there is a two mile walk, too.
There is, of course, a post-race party, age-group and category prizes–even face-painting for kids. Register online, and I will see you at the race!
