May 9th - Another 10 Lunches Outing

When? 11:15am to 1:00pm on May 9

Where? Meet at The Scout Monument in Penn Valley Park at 11:15am; we will spread out through the community after we rally there (directions below)

What? We will be passing out sack lunches to members of the community as an act of love on a day that is kind of dedicated to love.

What to Bring? Sack lunches to pass out - there is no minimum or maximum number of lunches to bring, just bring what you can. You're welcome to bring clothes or other items to give to the homeless and needy individuals in our city.

This event is the product of a warm response from those involved in Love Day 09; people said they'd be interested in doing it again. So that's what we're doing, passing out lunches around the community. Bring your friends. Everyone is invited. We'll go out in groups to different parts of the downtown community.

If you have questions, don't hesitate to contact me. If you don't live in Kansas City, do something similar in your city! Spread the love.

May 9th Anyone?

Hello everyone,

It has been awhile since I've blogged.  So many things have happened in the last month unrelated to 10 Lunches.  However, I'd like to throw out a possible date for another outing.  May 9th.  I think we may have a number of people that are interested in this as a possible date for the next outing.  

If you read this blog and are interested in coming to the event, please do one of two things.  Make a comment in the comments section below or email me at joelrthomason@gmail.com .

Thanks.  Hope all is well.

Joel
