[CCCNFBW] Notes from wine & cheese fund raising meeting

[Merribeth Greenberg]

I do have a suggestion if we do have an in person event to also ask for
non-perishable items to be donated to help our community and give the
donations to the Clark County Food Bank.

I am willing to make some bake good to auction off too.
