Atlanta GI2MR Raw Food Meetup Recap
Comments(5) The Atlanta raw food gathering we had all hoped one happen someday finally did, last Friday, July 11th, 2008. I’d love to say that I have a particular talent at building community, or even say that I have unique experience in building community, but, alas, neither of those would be accurate. I spent the bulk of my time trying to figure out how to bring all of the local raw food enthusiasts together that I have met through various online networks. A few on MySpace, a smattering on eat.rawfood.com, a skoche from Facebook, and then, of course Give It To Me Raw. Well, all of those problems were solved when we collectively caught a small case of the Dhru that swept through Atlanta last weekend.
There were pictures taken. (thanks Audry)
A video was produced. (thanks Beth)
In the aftermath, many a blog post was written:

A huge thanks to Chadd! : D; by Sunshine (alright, i’m kinda patting myself on the back with this one)
And a few thanks need to be given:
A special thanks to Jim Thomas of R. Thomas’ Deluxe Grill for taking such good care of us.
And, most importantly, to Dhrumil. My feelings are best summed up by a text message i sent Dhru later that night:
‘Tonight was really inspiring, thanks for helping us see our potential’
