Well, if your event got cancelled you'll have time on your hands. The Salvation Army has put out a call for volunteer help.
Under a partnership agreement Red Cross runs the shelters but the "Sally" is responsible for preparing and serving 3 meals a day to all the evacuees in all the local shelters (Dallas, Ft. Worth, Denton County, Ellis County, and Collin County) Volunteer groups or individuals can sign up for a meal shift at http://www.volunteernorthtexas.org/Vo... or http://form-now.com/dfw/volunteer.htm
They need hundreds of volunteers daily - possibly 700+ if all potential shelter sites are activated.
