A contingent of San Diego Eagles spent a couple of hours Saturday, May 5, at the San Diego Food Bank in the second local phase of this year’s “Eagles for Others” activities. The previous Saturday, phase one took place at Our Lady’s Church in Barrio Logan (earlier post).
Ten chapter members and friends joined other local volunteers at the Food Bank for a two-hour shift loading boxes of food for local seniors. According to Food Bank staff, the crew loaded 19,000 pounds of canned and packaged food into 625 boxes, providing an estimated 60,000 meals. Here’s a gallery pf photos from the day.
After the session, a half-dozen Eagles and friends relaxed at the nearby Ballast Point Brewery Miramar.
Service events happen every year. They’re work and they’re fun.
Sorry I could not make it. I was in Boston for a week to see my kids and grandson. Thanks to all of you for your thoughtful service. Best regards, Jim Trahon
