Grass Valley, CA, February 03, 2010 --(PR.com)-- On Thursday, February 4, from 7 pm - 9 pm, Aikido’Ka is holding its first Non-Potluck for the Nevada County Food Bank.

The Nevada County Food Bank is in dire straits. They are so low on food that they’re rationing distributions to the hungry. Without help, the Food Bank will probably soon have to start turning people away.

In response, Aikido’Ka is holding its First Non-Potluck for the Food Bank. On Thursday, February 4, gather together all the fixings for a potluck, but don’t make anything. Take the food to the dojo and they will donate it to the Food Bank. The event is a Non-Potluck, so please make sure all food donations are non-perishable. In addition, attendees can donate money at the event.

The Non-Potluck will be from 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm. Make lots of new friends, enjoy one another’s company, play, dance, do some simple aikido and not eat together. For those who cannot attend the Non-Potluck, they can donations anytime after 10:00 am, February 4, at the dojo. A map is located at http://www.joinaikido.com/aikido-in-grass-valley/.

The Non-Potluck is a family event and everyone is invited.

Aikido’Ka has been supporting the Food Bank since 2007. They held their first food drive in 2007 – dubbed "We Can . . . Drive Through". On October 27, 2007, at the bottom of Broad Street in Nevada City, the community raised approximately $2,500 in cash and over 1,600 pounds of non-perishable food. In 2008, Aikido’Ka held "We Can . . . Drive Through 2" and the community raised over $2,800 in cash and 2,200 pounds of food. In November, 2009, they held "We Can . . . Drive Through 3" and raised over $2,800 in cash and approximately 1,600 pounds of food.

Aikido’Ka is training peaceful warriors and community leaders through its Project Based Leadership programs. At Aikido’Ka students perform community service as part of their martial arts and leadership training.

Aikido is unique among martial arts by striving for twin goals – practicing effective self-defense while hurting no one. Aikido’Ka holds classes for all ages and physical condition.
