Newsletter to Raw Sacramento Thursday, November 13,  2003

                                              

 Christian Blackburn explains what he brought to the November 2 potluck in West Sacramento.   The counter was loaded with tasty dishes.  Larry and Diane Walters hosted this potluck at their home in West Sacramento which had over 40 people in attendance.

 


 

We're nearing the end of the year 2003 and special thanks are due to the following people who opened their homes in 2003 for a Raw Food Potluck. 

 

Kim Berry & Tess Pitoy

Adair Schwarz

Margaret Williams

Susan Wang

Gordon & Gladys Callander

Marlowe Allenbright

Roberta Baily & Paul Wulff

Juleen Stenzel

Larry & Diane Walters

 

The 100 or more of us who have actively participated in potlucks this year are very appreciative.   Without their generosity, we would not have enjoyed the many fun Raw Sacramento events.

 

There are some other folks who have been especially helpful in contributing their time to Raw Sacramento this year in any number of ways.  These include:

 

Pam Benson

Juleen Stenzel

Larry & Diane Walters

Adair Schwarz

Shar Martinez

Jay Soduski

Veronika Clay

Marilyn Littlejohn

Gordon Callander

Can you help Raw Sacramento?

 

Here are 3 ways you could help Raw Sacramento:

 

1.  Event Coordinator (for 1 event in January)

 

Would you like to help Raw Sacramento?  We need a volunteer to be an Event Manager for 1 event.  The event will be a presentation by Paul Nison, author of The Raw Life.  He would like to speak in Sacramento on January 19.  The event manager would need to make arrangements, publicize the event, arrange for catering of a raw food meal or dessert.  The event coordinator would need to attend the next 2 Steering Committee Meetings at the Co-op (Dec. 2 and Jan. 6).   The event manager would need to be in touch with Paul Nison (helping him with hotel / or guest accommodation), and would need to start immediately putting into place the location, publicity, and venue details.

 

2.  Hosting a 2004 Potluck

 

I have updated our potluck schedule indicating the dates in 2004 for potlucks.  What we need now are homes at which we could have these potlucks.  Our participation is trending up—our last potluck had 40 individuals.  If you are the host, you do not need to prepare a dish.  And, you don't need to drive.  The food comes to you!  Here's some information about hosting a potluck

 

3.  Writing a Raw Food Testimony

Have you eaten exclusively Raw Foods for at least 2 months?  Did you experience any health improvements?  Would you be willing to write a 'Raw Food Testimony?"   We would like to post more of these.  If you have concrete, documentable health improvements and can write a few paragraphs about your experience, it may influence and help others.  Would you please send us your Testimony?    

 


 

Our next regular Monthly Raw Potluck will be Our Annual Holiday Dessert Potluck.  Location will be announced very soon.  Keep the date:  December 7 at 4:30pm.

 

Our Steering Committee will meet next on Tuesday, December 2 at the Co-op Dining Area at 5:30pm.   All Raw Sacramento members are welcome and encouraged to attend.  We always need volunteers for special projects such as the Event Coordinator for Paul Nison's visit. 

 

Do you need a personal raw food coach?   We have a couple  in Sacramento.  Here's SharHere's Maya.
