TEAM Delridge, a program of the King County Food and Fitness Initiative, will have a community meeting Monday March 23 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Southwest Community Center, 2801 S.W. Thistle St.
It's a neighborhood effort to identify the most pressing needs in the community relating to food and fitness.
Topics of discussion include: What kind of businesses, organizations, or programs will make a more vibrant Delridge? What are the largest community concerns, and how can they be addressed?
The goal is to inform a Community Action Plan, which will then be supported by the Kellogg Foundation during the next 10 years.
Also, on March 25, and every last Wednesday of the month, join a free "Community FEEST Potluck," at the Youngstown Cultural Arts Center from 5 to 7 p.m.
The community is invited to partake in organic dishes and an opportunity to build community with the youth members of the Food Education Empowerment and Sustainability Team. It's also a first glance into the King County Food and Fitness Initiative's proposed Community Action Plan to improve and sustain resources in the Delridge and White Center neighborhoods.
In addition, anchor tenant The Nature Consortium, as well as other local organizations will offer more information about their programs and how people of all ages can get involved.
To RSVP, please send an email to hollisw@dnda.org with the number of people in your party, your contact information, and what type of dish you would be interested in preparing.
