COMMUNITY MEAL June 4th 2010, last meal until Fall The Board of Inn From The Cold is pleased to announce and invite you to participate in our Friday Night Community Meal Program at 510 Penrose St. from 5:00PM to 7:00PM. In April and then again in June 2009, faith and service groups met at the Inn on Penrose St. to determine how we all could best help the less fortunate in our community. A community meal open to anyone in need in Newmarket was our initial goal. The model we developed allowed 1) any group of 10 or more citizens the opportunity to come to the Inn and prepare and serve a meal on designated Friday nights. 2) Also any business, service club, faith group, and/or individual interested in paying for the meal was invited to step forward with $300 - $400 per meal, receive some recognition, a tax receipt, and our thanks. Any individual in need is invited to join us regularly for a meal, some light entertainment and companionship. In 2009 we were open on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day! Initially, we had hoped to provide 19 Community Meals from December to the end of March. At this point we are grateful to announce, the meal program has been extended to June 2010.Currently in the works and close to our hearts is the ability to identify shut-ins and then to transport them to us or provide a meal to them. If you and/or your group would like to get involved, please contact us at 905-895-8889 or email us at
