Today was an incredible day in Iowa. The Food Bank of Iowa in Des Moines received over 70,000 pounds of protein. This means over 280,000 meals for families in Iowa. http://www.wcfcourier.com/articles/2007/07/26/news/metro/1b99be410e4a0c1786257323004376a6.txtThen it was on to Stout, Aplington and ending in Cedar Falls to cook for hungry riders as they ended their day. Cedar Falls saw one of the largest crowds ever, over 25,000 people all ready to celebrate the ride and see Blues Traveler and Lance Armstrong.
Both were worth the heat and crowds. Today, team members from Waterloo cooked their hearts out for children in the Cedar Valley with the NE Iowa Food Bank, Salvation Army and Kid Quest benefiting from thousands of riders and visitors to the Unidome! 
The highlight of the evening.....an inspirational Lance Armstrong and the great singer/harmonica player John Popper from Blues Traveler. We have quite a following now, so repeat customers are welcome. Tomorrow morning....on to Independence.
