This is our third year of providing delicious meals to our neighbors through Soup Squad on Saturdays at Marion Square Park (Commercial side).
We set up in the park just prior to 3pm - servers are hopefully there to help and then the first soup maker arrives with their deliciousness for our neighbors at 3pm. The dishes arrive every 15 minutes after that, with the last one at 4:45pm. Sometimes Soup Squad may end early if we don’t have enough folks to sign up to bring delicious dishes.
We offer soup, casseroles, ordered pizzas, hotdishes that volunteers sign up to provide. A food handler’s card is required to make food for Soup Squad and also to volunteer to serve but if you don’t have a food handler’s card, you can still sign up for a server position and you can help with the table that offers period packs, cold weather aid and harm reduction.
Holly and Ryan are the point people for Soup Squad at Marion Square Park on Saturdays.
