Medford Food Project's First Neighborhood Coordinator Appreciation Dinner

On Saturday, January 7, 2012, we held our first annual Neighborhood Coordinator Appreciation Dinner at ScienceWorks Hands-On Museum. More than 100 people showed up, including 50 NCs and their families. It was a huge success! There was plenty to eat, plenty to do (ScienceWorks is a great place to throw a party), and plenty of good company.

Food was donated by Costco and the SunRise Cafe. Wine was donated by Valley View Winery and the RoxyAnn Winery. We sincerely appreciate everyone's contribution; an extra tip of the hat to Jerrine Rowley, Sandy Abell, Donni Borchard, Jane Maynard, and Susan Harris for planning the event.
