The Elementary Schools around Knox County show their support of Food For The Hungry

WNZR’s Marcy Rinehart had a chance to see NINE food pallets stacked with food from local elementary school collections. She visited a warehouse at Blubaugh Body & Frame to see the result of generous gifts from kids in our community.
Listen in as she talks with Cindi Doolittle and Sandra Fithian of Psi Iota Xi and Linda Owens of Delta Kappa Gamma about this county-wide collection.

WNZR’s Wesley Boston talked with Lori Totman from the Knox County Parks District about their event to support Food For The Hungry. Fire and Ice will be held Saturday, December 8th from 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm.
Over 600 luminaries will light your paths to Honey Run Waterfall and the Kokosing State Scenic River. Honey Run Waterfall is one of Knox County’s most spectacular natural gems and is absolutely mesmerizing with the hundreds of candle-lit snowflake bags. Please stay for holiday treats and enjoy a roaring bonfire! Be sure to bring a canned food item(s) for the Food For The Hungry drive. Deposit your food gift in one of the boxes provided. Last year patrons donated 115 lbs. of food and we hope to surpass that number this year. The Knox County Park District thanks you for your generosity to our neighbors and friends in need!
