Softball To Serve at Jubilee Cafe

April 7, 2005

LAWRENCE, Kan. –

The University of Kansas softball team will wake up extra early Friday morning to help prepare and serve food at the Jubilee Cafe at First United Methodist Church. The Jayhawks will begin cooking at 6 a.m. and serve breakfast at 7 a.m. before leaving for a weekend series against Oklahoma State in Stillwater, Okla.

The Jubilee Cafe, located at 946 Vermont Street, has been in existence for 10 years and now helps serve about 135 meals twice a week (Tuesdays and Friday) to the needy. The Jayhawks’ involvement was organized by senior pitcher Kathy McVey, a native of Kansas City, Mo.
