The Table

One of the community programs of the Rotary Club of Napa Sunrise is serving at the Table. I asked Michael Chramko, from Napa Sunrise, about the program.

Michael writes:
"Our club has been feeding the needy at the TABLE, at the First Presbyterian Church for about 18 years.  Until last year, we only served the food that someone else cooked; but as our club grew, an interest was expressed to cook also.  So, getting products from the Food Bank, and buying what is needed, a crew of 5 to 6 people spends a couple of hours cooking.  Another crew of 5 to 6 people comes in to serve from 3PM to 4:45PM.  In the beginning, we used to serve 65 to 70 meals.  Now, with the economy, the numbers have grown to as many as 240.  Last Tuesday was a light day, only 145 meals served.  We work on the first Tuesday of every month.  Other organizations do it during other week days.  Carolyn Spence is the coordinator for all the groups working at the TABLE: she's a member of the church."
