Many St. Paul's volunteers supported the Saturday, August 17, 2024 Grassroots Day Resource Center (DRC) meal:     Mike Heyser and the Men's Brotherhood donated leftover food items from the Corn roast (hamburgers, hotdogs, corn, and watermelon), Sally Murphy and Cathy Dymek purchased the additional food needed for the meal; Maureen Arndt, Roz Norman, Erik Domaas, John Bell, and Judy Hewitt prepared the meal; and Bill Hunt, Marshall Scott, Janey Jew, and Sue Bell delivered and served the meal. The menu included grilled hamburgers and hotdogs, coleslaw, chips, watermelon, assorted chips, cookies, iced tea, and lemonade. The meal was very well received  by the Grassroots clients and fed approximately 82 people at Grassroots DRC in Jessup, MD. The leftover corn was cut off the cob, frozen and kept at Grassroot DRC for future meals. The remaining leftovers were brought to Grassroots Shelter in Columbia, MD, enough to feed an additional 30 people.
