Colossal Clothes-A-Rama Continues!!

AUGUST FOOD DISTRIBUTION at OAK TREE SCHOOL The Food Bank of Nevada County, the County of Nevada, Twin Ridges Elementary School District, and the San Juan Ridge Family Resource Center are working together to provide food to the San Juan Ridge Community. On Tuesday, August 11, from 10am to noon, there will be a drive-thru food distribution on the Oak Tree Campus. Although the FRC’s food pantry has been feeding the community for years, this drive-thru distribution will make it possible for people to access far larger amounts without ever having to get out of their vehicles. We hope that as many people as possible will be able to take advantage of this event. For more info, please call 292.3171.

Tomorrow, Wednesday the 14th, is our FINAL DAY for the Colossal Clothes-a-rama at the Oak Tree Lodge from 9 am-1 pm. Come by to pick out some FREE clothing and Halloween costumes!! Call the Resource Center at 292.3174 with any ?s. NO DONATIONS ACCEPTED, NO EXCEPTIONS.
