Sacramento Hunger Commission: November 2003 Agenda

Date: Tuesday, November 18, 2003
Location: SETA Head Start (new location)
925 Del Paso Blvd.
Time: 11:30-1:00pm
Directions: Directions: From downtown take 16th St. north. When it turns into 160 get in the left hand lane and exit left on Del Paso Blvd. SETA is a big colorful building on the left side of the street so you will need to make a U-turn at the first opportunity. If you are coming from I-5, exit on Garden Highway. Go east beside Discovery Park and straight over the Arden-Garden overpass. At the bottom of the overpass make a right turn at Colfax and another right on Del Paso Blvd. SETA will be on your right. Or if you're on Reno/San Francisco I-80 you can exit on Northgate, go south to the Garden Highway/Arden Garden connector, turn left over the overpass and follow the direction above. SETA has plenty of parking. Go in the Head Start entrance (it's around the building to the right of the main 925 entrance) and ask at the front desk for the Hunger Commission meeting.

Please feel free to bring a brown-bag lunch; juice and cookies or fruit will be provided. For the rest of the year we will be meeting at the new SETA Head Start building.
