And, unlike other SF restaurants, it is actually heated during the winter so we won&#8217;t need to bundle up just to eat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What:<\/strong> Volunteer &amp; Activist Community Dinner<strong><br \/>\nWhere:<\/strong> Udupi Palace, 1007 Valencia St (21st St), San Francisco<strong><br \/>\nWhen:<\/strong> 1\/29\/09 Thursday, 6:00 pm<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/rsvp.htm?id=2046\"><br \/>\nRSVP<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/events.php?EID=2046#2046\">Full Details<\/a><\/p>\n<p>So whether you&#8217;re new or old BAVeg member, aspiring or experienced activist\/volunteer, as long as you are interested in working with BAVeg to promote veganism, please join us for this dinner meeting on January 29th, 2009 at 6 pm at Udupi Palace restaurant in SF.<\/p>\n<p>Turn your resolutions to help animals, be more active, and promote veganism into actionable solutions!<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to meeting and working with you in 2009.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers,<br \/>\nTammy and Chris<br \/>\nco-founders of BAVeg<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/ads\/volunteer.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We want to wish everyone a Happy New Year, and hope that 2009 will be a great year for advocacy &amp; outreach in the Bay Area and with Bay Area Vegetarians, aka BAVeg aka Be-A-Veg This is a beginning of a new year, and we&#8217;re in search of fresh ideas, energy and talent to help [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4,5],"tags":[44,12,37],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/517"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=517"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/517\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":531,"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/517\/revisions\/531"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=517"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bayareaveg.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
