There is still time to help the Nehalem Elementary School with their “LET’S SHARE & CARE Food Drive”. Drop off locations for food which will be sent home with kids to have over the Christmas holidays can be left at Mohler Co-Op, RTI Nehalem, NCRD Recreation District, Wild in Manzanita, Nehalem Food Mart, and the Nehalem Elementary School. This, like all other food drives, is a particularly important event. This food is what is going to feed our kids over the 2 weeks of Holiday break. If you have any questions, please call Heaven Hartford at 503-355-3639, the Family Resource Coordinator of the Neah-ah-Nie School District. Let us get out there and do some food shopping for our kids.
