Meal-morial Madness charity gaming marathon

This Saturday, instead of feeding ourselves at annual Memorial Day cookouts, I'll be helping feed others by playing in the Meal-morial Madness gaming marathon. My friends and I will be playing video games most of the day in an effort to generate donations for the local Mid-Ohio Foodbank. And because where I go, Redline Derby goes, we're somewhat of an unofficial sponsor.

We'll be streaming live on Twitch starting at 12PM ET and it should be quite the comedy of people playing (and trying to play) video games. At this point, we all have some sort of video game experience, whether it's Pong, Super Mario, or Fortnite...we all have gaming memories, so I hope you'll tune in for even a few minutes to see what's going on.

And even if you're not a gamer or have much time to watch from home, please take a moment to think about the folks out there at this time that may need some day-to-day help. Consider donating to your own local foodbank or community charity that can help those that need it.

It's gonna be a weird holiday weekend but I hope everyone makes the most of it with your family & friends as much as you can. Stay safe and have fun!
