Good Stuff in TEC: Georgia


Soup kitchen to open Monday at former barbecue spot

Tomorrow marks the beginning of what volunteers call a better way of serving the hungry in the community.

The Rome-Floyd County Community Soup Kitchen is scheduled to open in the former site of Troy’s Barbeque, located at the corner of North Broad Street and Calhoun Avenue in Rome.

The hours of operation will be from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and, on Monday, First Methodist volunteers will serve chili, corn-bread and an assortment of desserts.

Four local churches in the community will act as good neighbors and rotate management of the facility for the first, second, fourth and fifth week of the month. On the third week, St. Peter’s Episcopal Church will open the doors for the hungry at their church.
