SALEM – The Ohio Federation of Conservation Clubs is holding a food drive from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 14 at Dollar General, 151 Legacy Lane, off North Ellsworth Avenue. Volunteers will be filling a trailer with non-perishable food items to be given to the Second Harvest Food Bank. Monetary donations will also be accepted. All cash donations will be used to purchase additional non-perishable food items.
Additionally, local sportsmen who are interested in helping with the drive is welcome. Volunteers will assemble in the Dollar General parking lot at 8:30 on Saturday morning.
Buddy Bricker, president of the Ohio Federation of Conservation Clubs, said the group comprises outdoor sportsmen who promote hunting, trapping, fishing, shooting and the
conservation of our natural resources. Member clubs are located throughout the state and include the 11 sportsman clubs who make up the Columbiana County Federation of Conservation Clubs.
Bricker said this is the third year for the food drive. "Every donation makes a difference," he said. "It's a great way for us to give back to our local community and to help our neighbors in need."
The drive will be held rain or shine.
