Frostbite Food Drive Kicks Off Today

The Father Fred Frostbite Food Drive kicks off today and runs through Feb. 17. The goal is to fill at least three semi-trucks with non-perishable food items for the Father Fred food pantry. Donation sites include: Garfield Centre (800 block of S. Garfield), Fox Motors (U.S. 31 S.), Family Fare (Chum's Corner), Oleson's (Three Mile & Hammond) and Tom's (Acme). In addition to food collection, the drive also includes a $100,000 food and cash donation match challenge. In 2012, there were more than 16,5000 visits to the pantry, a 36% increase since 2010.
