    Just a reminder that tomorrow, December 17 is the monthly Frederick .NET User Group meeting.

    All .Net User Groups have been challenged to run a food drive during their December meeting. So we’re going to accept the challenge and donate all the collected items to a local shelter in Frederick, MD. Below is a list of the items our local food bank is in need as donations:

    * Pasta Sauce
    * Cereal, Oatmeal, and other breakfast items
    * Peanut Butter and Jelly
    * Macaroni and Cheese
    * Bagged rice (white or brown)
    * Bottled juice
    * Canned veggies
    * Canned fruit
    * Canned Tuna, Salmon, Chicken, Ham
    * Tea, Coffee (regular $ decaf - instant)
    * Snacks (crackers, fruit & granola bars, etc.)
    * Dry Goods (sugar, sweetner, flour, salt, spices)
    * Condiments (mayo, ketchup, mustard, etc.)
    * Cooking Oil & Olive Oil

    They can also take baby items:

    * Diapers
    * Formula
    * Baby Wipes
    * Baby food

    To help bolster donations, we thought it would be a good idea to have a seperate, donators only, drawing for prizes, 1 ticket per item.

    The evening’s agenda starting @ 6:45 PM:

    Intro topic: “Intro to WatiN” with Tim Plourde.

    In-depth topic: “Geocoding, RSS, and Mapping, oh my!” with Andrew Duthie.
