Stouffville Sun-Tribune n www.yorkregion.com n Thursday, Oct. 4, 2012, 10 Hockey team assists at Mayor's Food Drive The soup cans, boxes of macaroni and cheese and cash donations are still being counted, but by all accounts, the fourth annual Mayor's Food Drive was another success. "It was wonderful," said Marion Wells, co-ordinator of Whitchurch-Stouffville Food Bank, beneficiary of the one-day blitz. "We feel it was definitely successful and the cash donations were definitely above last year and we were encouraging that," she said, noting that money pays for fresh food and helps fill the gaps when items run low. The additional cash may be attributable to the Whitchurch-Stouffville Fire Department, which held a boot drive Saturday. Geranium Homes also contributed quite a bit, Ms Wells said. People who volunteered Saturday included a Stouffville Clipper midget hockey team, with players helping to sort the items as they came into the town hall. "The boys were wonderful. They were on top of everything. That's a big job," she said. Ms Wells noted donations at NoFrills, Metro and Giant Tiger were up over the weekend. "Those who give, give of their time, give of their substance and we are so grateful," she said. Donations are welcome year round at several Stouffville stores and churches. The food bank is located in Churchill church, near Musselman's Lake. ­Sandra Bolan Volunteers load up donations headed for the food bank near Musselman's Lake.
