A canned food drive leading up to the Allen County Fair will benefit community pantries in Allen County.
The food drive is sponsored by Iola Rotary and is part of its upcoming Rotary Day at the Park July 30.
Rotary Day includes the annual Smokin’ Hot Cars and BBQ Cookoff event.
In addition to pulled pork culled from the cookoff — 425 pounds of the freshly cooked meat were donated in 2015 — canned food and non-perishable food items will be collected through the month.
Several drop-off locations have been established.
Iola — The New Greenery, The Feedlot, Community National Bank, Advantage Computers and Walmart.
Humboldt — Stacy Cakes, Emprise Bank, Moon’s Hometown Market and Community National Bank.
Moran — City Hall, Stub’s Market and Emprise Bank.
