As part of TE’s social action program, Nancy Weber and Max Case have organized a group of TE members to serve dinner at the Beth El Center soup kitchen in Milford on the first Tuesday of each month.
Here’s how it works: We purchase a main course meal sufficient to provide for approximately 40 individual meals. The cost of the main course is not more than $100 and we are working out a system where we can all share this expense equitably over the year. Salad, bread, dessert, coffee and drinks are available from the Beth El Center’s food pantry at no charge to us.
Preparing for dinner generally takes 30 to 45 minutes and includes setting tables, making coffee and drinks, preparing salad and plating desserts. The dining area is open from 5 to 6 and our members serve dinner, clean tables and bring dirty dishes and glasses to the dishwasher.
After the dining room closes at 6, we clean up the kitchen and the dining area, put away dishes and silverware and wipe down the tables. As you might expect with any TE function there is plenty of time to socialize and catch up with each other. Depending upon the socializing and talk, we are generally finished by 6:30.
