The goal is just that, to feed the hunger. On an average, about 300 people are fed,from the homeless to families walking around the park; even those who are playingbasketball close 100ft away, or those who would rather throw a football in the openfields. No matter the case maybe, the lines are packed. Sometimes Eureka Lodge No.1 will provide the main course, sometimes just the water, a few times they have evenprovided the whole meal and asked for assistance in serving the food. All arewelcomed to help volunteer or donate to the cause.Brother Wilson (l) and Brother Wesby (r) withSister Jones of Electa Chapter No. 1Page 6
