More Eating For Relief

Amazing things are happening in Austin. People are coming together and overflowing with good will. Our new favorite effort is from Crowd Control Records. They are putting together a BBQ on Sunday, September 18th for those evacuees staying at Austin Convention Center. Here's the mission in their own words: "... to provide a day of relief and fellowship for disaster evacuees now living at the Convention Center in downtown Austin. We would like to offer a chance for those now living there to get outside to enjoy a hand cooked, hand served meal at Palm Park, directly across the street from the convention center. Through a network of volunteers and donors we are planning to provide a hot New Orleans style meal, iced tea, a kids tent and entertainment from a local New Orleans style Zydeco band."

Go to the web site to find out how to volunteer for this event or to give your $2 donation that will provide a meal for one person (though you are certainly welcome to give more!).
