Successful Food 4 Food Drive at Hometown Halloween
Helping to fill the local food pantry

Peg Shaw, Susie Brendle, and Mark Brendle at Food Collection Site

 

Over 30 cases of canned goods and other non-perishable items were collected for the local Blairsville food pantry. What a great community we live in! Parents, children, teenagers, and other citizens took time out of their busy schedules to gather up canned goods and bring them to the event.

Three gift baskets, filled with certificates from local restaurants, were given away. Sharla Dupuis, Vince Roebuck, and Joe Boris were the lucky winners. They will get to enjoy a week’s worth of meals including everything from country style breakfasts to delicious pizza to freshly baked donuts.

Many local restaurants donated gift certificates including Brasstown Valley Resort, Copperhead Lodge, Papa's Pizza, Baskets with gift certificates for dining outComfort Café, Hole in the Wall, Seafood 2 Go, Griddle Café, Grinds n Glazes, Blimpie's, Dales Hot Dog House, Zaxby's, Hilltop Café, Prete's Pizza, Downtown Pizza, J& J Café, Shake Healthy, Waffle House, Blairsville Restaurant, Cook's Country Kitchen, Mike's Seafood, Fatz Café, Popie's BBQ, Cookie Jar, Sawmill, Panther Pub, and Antoinetta's. Thanks for their generosity and support.
