$400 and about 6 weeks' worth of food donations delivered to the Elk Grove Village Food Pantry! Thanks again to our great sponsors including Tackle Industries, Naze Baits, Drifter Tackle and others as well as to all those that brought food and donated cash!

Before and after pics to show WHY the help you give really does make a difference! The pantry sees about 10-15 people a day hoping for a little help in getting something to eat and as you can see, the pantry went from nearly empty to a place to help some folks out.

BUT, we can do better and we SHOULD do better. Next years' goal should be more than $1000 cash and twice as much food to bring in. I'm not 100% sure HOW we're going to make it happen, but we will!

Really great to see. Just a reminder to help your local food shelves out. There a lot of kids and families that don't have food security which is screwed up. Lot of stores have pre packed bags near the check out so its easy. Thanks to those who organized this. I will we see something like this at all the shows this year?
