After setting up the gazebos, Zack spotted Sam in the distance and introduced himself. It was Zack's first ever good deed! Welcome newbie! He signed up to help collect food donations from the local businesses, but as you will see in the following run reports....he stayed all day and collected 5 good deeds! Wow! Almost a record in GoodGym (as of writing this, 8 is the record), but he must take the record for most good deeds for a newbie....which I don't think we be beaten for quite some time!

Back to the task, Kelly, who was our lead coordinator gave us a list of 2-3 restaurants or bars in the Camberwell area to collect various food donations using a Morrison's trolley. We went to places like Irene's to collect many baked goods as well as Nando's to collect dessert and sauces, but our favourite has to be our journey to Falafel and Shawarma to collect 40 falafels and two trays of spiced potatoes and then heading to the Portuguese cafe to collect a box of egg custard tarts! Yum!

Unfortunately, not all the restaurants had prepared in advance / forgotten, but still there was plenty of food and the CAF organisers had prepared salads too.
