Saturday, May 9th, as I'm sure you are aware, was the National Association of Letter Carriers Food Drive day. (It happens on the second Saturday in May each year.) We had a Return Serve crew of eight at the Piedmont Post Office to help sort the bags of food brought in by the mail carriers as they returned from their shifts.
This was Return Serve's first event where we had more bodies than we had work to do. Our group stayed in good spirits though, and when there was a load, we were happy to help bring the bags of food from the trucks to the boxes. We heard rumors that donations were down this year from previous years, but later we heard that the numbers were still quite good. Another rumor was that the NALC Food Drive started in Eugene, OR and then went nationwide! We'll have to check our facts for these bits of trivia, but for now they make a good story. Thanks to everyone who volunteered at th
is event - more Oregon Food Bank fun ahead!
Fun times! Thanks for organizing these events! I want to come to another one soon.
