Dear Friends
 
Thank you for your interest in our "`All Things" Student Dinner Fellowship.'  Let me address some of the questions that have come up.
We meet in the Student Centre in room 318 (Third Floor) every Thursday night of the academic year (except during exams).

We begin “All Things” at 5:30 sharp and end promptly at 6:45 so our students can make their night classes. We ask that you arrive with the food around 5:15.pm.  Our student leaders will have been there for awhile setting up and they will help you carry the food in. If you have a cell phone and want to give us a heads up that you are coming or that you have arrived and you. Please call 905-525-9140 ext 24207 and let us know and we will rush down to help you.

 Sometimes we had more, some times less, this  year (2010-2011) we are averaging around 35 students attending “All Things” each week. 

 We supply all the utensils, plates, bowels, cups, etc … . We also have hotplates to keep the food warm when it arrives and crock pots for you to borrow in advance if you would like.  Just call me and I will drop one or two off to you.
 
Our “All Things” speakers are great and all our wonderful hosts are welcome to join us, hear our speakers and participate in the discussion.  
 
We encourage our hosts to come and join us, but if you cannot, I will be happy to come and pick up the food from any location you identify.
 
The students will appreciate any meal you would like to provide but please be aware that we always have one or two vegetarians in our group, so we generally need at least one small vegetarian option.  One thing I should say is that deserts are always much appreciated.
 
I supply the drinks/juice so you don’t have to bring drinks.
 
The students will do all the clean-up, wash the dishes etc … .
Once again thank you very much for you interest.
 
If you have any questions please contact me at fallonm@mcmaster.ca at 905-525-9140  ext 24123 
 
Thank you.  Michael
