I was just at Wal-mart and saw that corn and green beans are 50 cents a can. That means a case is $6.

The squirrels are storing up for winter. Maybe we should too.

Donations can be taken to the food bank on Mondays from 3-5 and Thursdays from 5-7 at the west door of the ECC church.

Thanks!

The Ellinwood Food Bank needs money donations for vouchers for dairy, meats, and frozen foods. The vouchers are only good at Ellinwood Family Foods, so your donation helps the community in two ways.

We are doing alright on food donations right now thanks to the school food drive and generous church support.

If you have kids at home just playing electronics Wednesday-send them to me!

From 12:30 to 3:00 I will be at the ECC church on 7th and Fritz sorting the HUGE donated food items from the grade school. They gave us about 2,000 items that need dated and sorted.

I need kids that can read and write neatly. Use the west entrance.
Thank you for all the donations!
