What connection does Icelandic hotdogs have with the FANN?

Steve Sherlock will own up to this one. He had the opportunity to take a trip around the Ring Road of Iceland during August 2021. Yes, during the pandemic, it almost didn’t happen and they were quite grateful that it did. The full story of the trip will be told another time. He will elaborate on how hotdogs do connect to the Franklin Area Nonprofit Network and the Community Action Now hashtag.

For those that miss the meeting, there will be a recap. For those who can make it, hopefully you will appreciate the connection!
