Trick or Cans? Definitely CANS!
What a great night! Actually 2 nights. The Maryville College Fighting Scots collected food on Thursday evening October 30th in the historic district near their campus.... great job! Adding to that drive were the "Trick or Cans" teams collecting on Halloween night in many neighborhoods around Maryville. Total collected and delivered to the CFC... 10000 cans! WOW! What a great blessing!
The youth who collected food on Halloween were found in many creative costumes.... Sarah Palin, a killer ballerina, Juno, characters from the Rocky Horror Picture Show and many more. Of course some volunteers wore the traditional Trick or Cans tee-shirt. Youth groups, clubs and individuals brought their food to the New Providence Presbyterian parking lot where they gathered to laugh, share snacks and count cans. What a great effort!
This year the team leaders were Scott McAmis, Michae Musick and Sarah Delozier (who will be taking over next fall). The board of directors expresses their deep gratitude for a job well done. Many hungry folks in Blount County will be helped in the days to come by the generosity of the community. As the woes of lay offs, sluggish economy and other life factors affect the families of Blount County the number of families needing help increases. Every single food drive and donation make a difference for someone in need.
Thank you Trick or Cans!
