It feels strange calling folks "turkeys"... but we at the CFC love the "Turkeys in the Straw"! This talented musical group promised a concert to raise funds and food for the CFC. Last Thursday evening August 7th, they gathered to play at the Blount County Public Library and what a crowd they drew! WOW!! Over 1000 pounds of food was collected and $475.00 was donated as well!
It was a fabulous concert filled with great singing, playing and fun! Everyone there had a great time. Believe it or not - it was Standing Room Only!
The board of the CFC is deeply grateful to the "turkeys" for sharing their talents with us and allowing the story of the CFC to be heard by more people!
School is back in session and food drives are being planned during football and basketball seasons. Several local grocery stores will be "hosting hoppers" for you to drop off food.... Remember those who are hungry when you shop. They need to be fed with food and with your concern.
