First Friday (on a second friday)

Snowstorm February 7, 2014

Snowstorm February 7, 2014

The snow (pictured above) we received last week broke our six year tradition of serving lunch on the first working Friday of the month. Because we don’t give up easily we’re serving a special Valentine’s edition of First Friday on the second Friday of the month.

We’re serving a marinara meatball sub with a vegetarian alternative. Please drop by at your convenience between 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM Friday February 14, 2014. All donations will benefit Linn-Benton Food Share.

Remember to use our drive thru drop-off site all month long for making cash and food donations to support the Governor’s food drive. Our drop-off site is open from 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM Monday through Friday. Donations are tracked by department.
