Dirty Rice for Clean Shores: July 3rd, 5 to 7pm

Posted by CMH Gourmand on June 28, 2010


My friend the “Church Lady” at Maple Grove Church in Clintonville asked me to pass this along.

So what are you doing this Saturday?


Who: Anyone
What: Eat for $5, all money goes to support cleaning up a dirty Gulf.
When: July 3rd, 5 – 7pm
Where: Maple Grove United Methodist Church
Why: Why not, eat good food, support other States (1776 style), eat as a community. Ben Franklin and Sam Adams would probably have done this.
How: Through the time and effort of community volunteers and local business owners.

More info here

Among the volunteers helping out will be one Liz Lessner LaRue of Betty’s, Tip Top, Surly Girl Saloon and Dirty Franks fame…among other wonderful things in our community. Food has been donated by US Foods and other business owners. Rumor has it the sausage is from New Orleans. There will be music. If you are interested in donating, performing, cooking, or helping out contact the church at: 614-262-1163.

So what is dirty rice? It is a sanitary Cajun dish with rice, meat and spices.

    Ooh fun! paired with the Clintonville Community Breakfast on the 4th, this could be a great weekend for eating with neighbors for a good cause.
