United Samaritans Foundation adds
3rd Street Cafe
Restaurant/Training Program
Please join us in welcoming the newest member of the USF Family! We have recently assumed control of the Daily Bread Café Restaurant/Training Program. We've renamed it "3rd Street Café" and have given it a fresh new look. Our Grand Opening - "Picnic In The Street" - will be on Saturday, August 16th from 11 AM to 3 PM. USF invites you for live entertainment, face painting, free fountain drinks and ice cream. Hot dogs can be purchased for $1, and chicken or tri-tip sandwiches for $2. Come meet our new manager, Roger Collett, and sample some of the café specialties. 3rd Street Café is located at 2413 3rd Street, Hughson. (209)883-4941
