Food! Now that I have your attention...

I am very excited for the next couple of months because I feel like I can contribute more with the things that I am best at.  I have been working in and around the food service for quite some time.  I have done everything from bar back to restaurant manager.  I have worked in every kind of restaurant from fast food to fine dining.
   The next couple of months will see us doing a lot of events to raise awareness for some really great causes.  This is what I do.  This is what I am trained in and is that not what it is all about?  It is about doing what you are best at in hopes that what you are best at, where you are able to contribute, is able to help out someone.

 

   So this month, we have a BBQ with the guys at Atlanta Pro Bicycle.  They are sponsoring our Nationwide Bike Ride and have been a tremendous help with our aluminum can drive.

  Next month, we are doing a wedding for one of our biggest supporter.  This includes the bike themed cake and a southern menu for dinner. 

   We will also be doing Brunches on the Beltline in March and April.  Atlanta is such a beautiful city this time of year and we are taking every opportunity to get out and enjoy the sun and all the hard work the city has put into creating a beautiful belt line for people to walk and ride comfortably in downtown Atlanta. 

   Finally (at least as of this writing, we would like to do so much more) we will sponsoring showings of Miss Representation.  This is such a powerful documentary about the media representation of women. 

   We need to see more positive roles for women in the media.  As the tag line says, "You can't be what you can't see".  We have decided that it is something that we have to spread it as much as we can,  so we are sponsoring showings in Atlanta, Seattle, and Clemson and doing yes, more food!

   These are some great events and we would love for people to attend.  The proceeds go to the Nationwide Bike Ride, supporting breast cancer awareness, alzheimers and diabetes research, as well as an end to homelessness and overall, the healthy lifestyle that comes with a life of cycling and just plain getting in shape.

   So what is it that you do?  How can you contribute?  We would love to have people volunteer their skills for our fundraising so please contact us if there is something that you would like to do.  Or just take a moment to make a donation.  Get involved! Contribute!
