SUMMARY:25th Annual Pounding for Florence Food Share
DESCRIPTION:The 25th annual “Pounding” to benefit Florence Food Share will be held at Grocery Outlet on Saturday\, November 22\, from 10 am to 2 pm.  Founded and hosted by local businesswoman Cindy Wobbe\, this annual food drive aims to fill the food bank’s pantries with much-needed canned\, boxed\, and frozen food items in time for the holiday season.  The event will be conducted as a drive-through donation drop directly in front of the store.  \nStarted in 2000 and held on the Saturday just before Thanksgiving\, the Pounding is modeled after the early tradition often practiced in small communities when a new family or preacher would move to town.  “To help folks get their feet firmly planted\, everyone would join together and contribute a pound of food to fill the pantry.  Someone would bring a pound of flour\, another a pound of sugar\, and somebody else a pound of beans.  When everybody chips in\, we can fill those shelves pretty quickly\,” said Wobbe.   “Nearly 800 families in our community are food insecure and rely on Food Share each month for assistance.  The current housing crisis and economic challenges place extraordinary stress on both Food Share and the families it serves.  That need is not going to go away.  This food drive has been a godsend year after year.”  To date\, this event has raised over 235\,000 pounds of food. \nWobbe will be joined by local radio personalities from KCST Coast Radio\, which has conducted a live radio remote on location every year since the beginning.  Purchasing food from Grocery Outlet is not required; food from any commercially packed source will be accepted.  However\, Florence Grocery Outlet marks specials throughout the store of items most desperately needed at the food bank and plans to have extra staff available during the event to help with pushing grocery carts\, loading boxes of canned foods\, and ringing in customers at the check stands.\nGrocery Outlet is located at 2066 Hwy. 101.  The Pounding will begin at 10 am on Saturday\, November 22\, and continue until 2 pm.
