[Grovenet] A Brief Introduction...

[Adam Hampton]

Hello.
        My name is Adam Hampton. I am a former GroveNet subscriber who 
has re-subscribed. This time, however, I have a purpose (more on that 
later) for being on GroveNet. Previously I had been a 'lurker'. I have 
resided in the Forest Grove area for about seven years (a newcomer, eh?) 
am married and have four children in the local schools. I am a stay at 
home dad and the husband of a very relieved-to-still-have-a-job-at-Intel 
wife. Maybe there is a support group out there for Intel spouses--at 
least there should be one.
        The real reason why I've re-subscribed is that I need the help 
of my Forest Grove community. Some of you may be aware of the Holiday 
Food Basket Program event that the Oregon Food Bank organizes each year. 
Families in need are hooked up with sponsors who provide them with a 
good holiday meal (sometimes toys and other things, too). The Food Bank 
decided it wasn't part of their 'mission statement' to continue this 
program--so the responsibilities have been divided into five parts 
throughout Washington County. I was the sucker who took Forest Grove, 
Cornelius, and parts of Western Washington County. What I really need is 
to find some sponsors for these baskets. If you have been a sponsor, or 
would like to be a sponsor, could you please get back to me? Any 
volunteers?
       Thank You

Adam Hampton
