meeting minutes 10/31./2013

If you were unable to attend the SDA meeting on 10/31, here's what you missed...

-We are working hard to keep the calendar as updated and current as we can, so please check for future events and meetings

-Interested in a SDA T-shirt? Prices will be around $15-20 depending on how many we order. Please send Nikki Karetov an email if you are interested with your preferred size and if you have any suggestions for color. We are also thinking about adding a funny pun, so contact Nikki at nkaretov@gmail.com for more information. 

-Jen (Farmer's Market Coordinator) thought of an awesome SDA project that we will be compiling over the next year: an SDA Cookbook! This will include some of our favorite recipes (think back to your favorite childhood dish, cultural dish, etc) and possibly a short story about it.  If you are interested, submit pictures of your recipe, a picture of yourself, and of course, the recipe. In addition, we are holding a contest for best cover design. Winner gets their design featured on the cover of the cookbook! Please contact sda.sfstate@gmail.com, with the subject line "SDA Cookbook" with your contributions or questions. We are asking to submit by December/January so we can make edits in March, then receive in April! This will be an awesome way to remember your friends and good times at SFSU!

-Emily from 18 Reasons, a non profit organization, came in to tell us about an amazing volunteer opportunity. The program is called Cooking Matters, where teams of volunteers and chefs teach cooking classes for 6 weeks long. The classes are two hours long: 1 hour of nutrition education and a 1 hour cooking demonstration. These classes are offered all over the Bay Area. Meals are low-cost, nutritious, tasty and the classes are fun to teach!
Visit www.18reasons.org to find out schedule of classes and the next steps for volunteering.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone soon!
