Cans Across The ParkIt's back!  For the 22nd year in a row we'll be collecting non-perishable food items at Buttonwood Park as part of our annual Cans Across the Park Food Drive. Each year community members drop off food by the trunk loads and we could not be more appreciative. Last year we made it across the park and back again, filling the Red Cross truck with countless boxes of food for our local food pantries.  This year we're hoping to do even more and share the food with the United Way of Greater New Bedford and Red Cross.

Date: Saturday, 11/22/14

Time: 10:00am - 2:00pm

Location: Buttonwood Park, beginning on Brownell Ave and Court St intersection and through the middle of the park. Drop off anywhere you see volunteers!

Items being accepted: Non-perishables and canned goods

We thank every one of our listeners, members of the community and businesses who donate to this cause.  If you are unable to join us on November 22nd, you can drop off your donations off Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. at the Townsquare Media Studios in the days leading up to the event. We are located at 22 Sconticut Neck Road, Fairhaven, Mass. 02719.
