2014 Stone Soup Party: Saturday May 3 1pm-6pm
Argonne International Folk Dance
In order to spend more time dancing and less time cooking during the party, the soups will be made ahead. If you'd like to volunteer to bring a soup, let us know (or just show up with soup, the more the merrier!) You can let us know in person at Friday night dancing, or by e-mail, or by posting a comment on this post, or on the meetup.com event: http://www.meetup.com/http-argonneifd-blogspot-com/events/174398662/
I've been trying to figure out how to put the meetup.com RSVP widget here, but I can't quite get it to work.
