MEALS NIGHT
foir those of us who are sports fans we are lucky
here in the austin area as we have
3 minor league teams here that play at the highest
level of the minor leagues
when you go to one of the games you may be seeing a player
who will be in the major leagues that year or the next
or youll see a major league player who is playing down
so that they can rehab a sports injury
we have the round rock express the triple a team of the mlb rangers
the texas stars the minor league team for the nhl dallas stars hockey team
then
we have the austin toros the minor league team for the
nba san antonio spurs
the austin toros are the team in the nba d league
most of the players if they make it to the nba
will play for the spurs
some will be picked up by other teams later
so the quality of play is just below the nba level
our political leaders on both sides
they are both responsible since the cuts for funding for the
meals on wheels programs was
voted on by both parties
why they would cut funding for a program that feeds the
poor elderly folks in our area
i dont know
wonder if they have trouble sleeping at night
if you see them campaigning bring this up
when i deliver meals on wheels to folks on my route
i am probably the only one that day who will see them
and
the meal we deliver to them is the only one they will get
that day
many split it in half and eat half at lunch and the other
half in the evening
money well spent
now the meals on wheels is having to find monies wherever
they can
to prevent decreasing the numbers of meals they deliver more
than they already do
in the county we serve there is a long waiting list of folks to get on
the meals on wheels
on friday march 7 at 730pm
it will be meals on wheels night at the austin toros game
at the cedar park center in cedar park texas
you can go here to this link to buy discounted tickets for that night
50% of the proceeds go back to the meals on wheels program
one of the cheapest ticket will produce enough for a meal for someone
there will also be a silent auction that night
there will be multiple items for auction
several gift certificates to area restaurants
one is to one of my wife shes favorite one
we will bid that one up for sure
there are sporting tickets to multiple venues like the
round rock express university of texas longhorns austin toros

We are willing to buy tickets even though we would not attend - however if we could just donate so 100% of our money goes to meals on wheels, how would we do that?
