Waynesville to hold annual food drive

The town of Waynesville’s annual food drive, including a Nov. 5 curbside pick-up of food donated by residents, will take place during November.

Hazelwood Elementary School and Junaluska Elementary School are participating in the drive. The collection by the schools will be during the month of November. Merchants on Main Street are also participating during the month of November by displaying collection boxes in their shops.

Cash donations are being accepted at the town’s Hazelwood Office located at 280 Georgia Avenue, the Recreation Center at 550 Vance Street, and the Planning/Development Office at 9 South Main Street. This money will be given to Haywood Christian Ministry to purchase food for their pantry.
