(This year being “post-pandemic”\, we will be able to gather for an informal lunch after we drop off our food donations.) \nEventbrite registration will be free\, just so we can gauge how many people will be attending the event.  In the next few days–we’ll include a link to a list of dry/nonperishable goods the food bank needs.This will be a rain or shine event—if your car is already in hibernation\, bring the SUV or sedan\, or you can still donate locally and opt out of the drive and lunch.
