St. Michael Church, Scouts Team up With Local Grocery Stores for Weekend Drive
A food and clothing drive operated by Alleluia! Lutheran Church moves into the community's two supermarkets Saturday for a huge food and clothing drive.
The fourth annual Food and Winter Clothing Drive, operated by St. Michael-Albertville's and assisted by the St. Michael-Albertville Boy and Girl Scout troops, will be held this Saturday.
Crews will be collecting everything from canned goods to coats for the Hanover Food Shelf at both and . The tables will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at each supermarket.
Donors can also drop off food or clothing at the Alleluia "Trick or Trunk" event, which will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. in the l parking lot. Kids can grab candy and prizes from the trunks (or hatchbacks) of cars in a simple "trick or trunk" procession.
