Mmm…
It’s that time of year. We’ve developed a little obsession with food festivals. Come check out the Greek food festival this Friday and Saturday. It’s on W. Bannock St, just off 27th St (to the east). And it’s not just food, bring your dancing shoes or at least come to hear some music.
The annual Russian food festival will take place this Friday and Saturday at the Russian orthodox church on 29th and Moore streets. Enjoy!
Boise needs a home for the many food trucks and the West End is an ideal location where food and people can form a new community. Contribute to a great project to revitalize the Main/Fairview corridor! Matt and Erin Sorenson are West End Neighbors who also own Whiz Kids. Time is short only a few hours left. Here are more details about how you can support…

Update
The campaign was successful!
The Food Truck Rally is coming to Whitewater Blvd between Main and Fairview, this Friday 5-9pm.
The Food Truck Rally is partnering with the Boise Relay for Life this Friday, March 14th to kick off their fundraising efforts. The Food Truck Rally is a monthly event in the Boise area that gathers food trucks in one spot for a community dining experience. 7 trucks will be rounded up at Whitewater Park Blvd (formally 30th Street) between Main and Fairview from 5-9pm. The American Cancer Society will have registration available for this year’s Relay for Life as well as giveaways and prizes! Radio Boise’s DJ Winkle will be spinning great tunes for everyone to enjoy.
In honor of Relay for Life, each truck will have a special purple-themed dish on their menu. Patrons of the rally will get to vote via donating to the American Cancer Society and the truck raising the money most will be honored!
Payette Brewing will have craft beer on tap plus a selection of Idaho wines available. IDs are required.
This is a family friendly (and dog-on-leash friendly) event. Parking available on site. Carpooling is encouraged. Bike parking available too!
Don’t forget! This weekend is the 30th Annual Greek Food Festival. Admission is only $1 donation and children under 12 years old get in free. Plus, the best part is that they have an awesome food and dessert menu along with church tours, Greek music and dancing for entertainment, and free Greek dancing lessons.

This event is also a great opportunity for the Neighborhood Association members to gather and socialize and recruit more people to be involved with all the new developments in our neighborhood.
