Calling all Charlottesville bloggers!
This Tuesday, Feb. 26, join me at The Shebeen for a dinner with a cause. The Charlottesville Community Scholarship Program is hosting Food for Thought — a dining out event that will help provide funding for eligible Charlottesville students to go to college this fall. (Disclaimer: I am a board member; I’m chairing this event.)
I’m hoping for a dining blogger meetup — who knows, maybe we’ll see Jen and Pete, and one of my first C’ville blogger friends, Jennifer. Maybe Anoop will join us, and then write about it next week. I’ve always wanted to meet Stanley (dude, you can come if you get that drooling thing under control). I’m hoping some of the Cvillians show up, to contribute to stimulating conversation. There are plenty of Charlottesville real estate bloggers looking to meet new clients. Perhaps this will be a good venue for you?
It would be really nice to see Patience, whose kids go to C’ville schools, and whose blog I enjoy ever so much.
And I hope YOU come, too, all you glorious Charlottesville readers. You’ve gotta eat, right? Let me know in the comments or via e-mail if you think you can make it — between 6pm and 9pm Tuesday night.
If you’re not in the mood for The Shebeen and don’t care about meeting me or other bloggers, head out to one of the other four participating restaurants Tuesday night. You can choose from C & O, Fellini’s #9, Zinc and ZydeCo. All five restaurants will be contributing a percentage of the night’s take to the Program.
About Charlottesville Community Scholarship Program
The Charlottesville Community Scholarship Program is a unique public-private partnership established by the Charlottesville City Council in 2001. The Program provides assistance to low- and middle-income Charlottesville High School graduates and City and school division employees who wish to continue their education after high school.
The Program is open to candidates young and old. Scholarships follow students through their undergraduate education, and amounts can be adjusted each year — an important fact given that many colleges front-load first-year financial aid to students. We look forward to seeing you there!

It’s Science Night at our school, so we’ll have to pass this time . Sounds fun though!
Working on the drooling thing. And working on my work schedule. Currently slated to work late that night, but I can possibly adjust it. Sounds like a great cause!
Wish I could attend and I did want to thank you for the mention in your post!
