Our first Food Bank last Wednesday went very well, with only a few glitches that we worked out.  We distributed quite a lot of good food – canned foods, assorted dried beans, milk, and some produce, peanut butter, bread.  This is free for all in our community – we need a few more people to come and get it!  They bring what they have, so we won’t know until it gets here.  There is still a small assortment left, which Jay has in the Store and can still be picked up – call the Gold Hill General Store to arrange a time (303) 443-7724.  And whenever you can, buy something, too, as they are providing a wonderful service for us up here.  Thanks so much to Jay and Whitney for all they’re doing!

The Food Bank was scheduled for Wednesday, around Noon behind the Store, but looking at the weather next week, I’m thinking Tuesday, which is predicted to be sunny vs. snow predicted for Wednesday.

I will send out an email with an update when I know more about exactly which day and what time.

Also, I spoke with Chris at the Nederland Food Pantry, who is doing this for us, and if anyone would like to contribute to this great organization, please go to their website   nederlandfoodpantry.org  

Hang in there, you all.  We’ll get through this together in our  wonderful community.
