Free food is to be distributed at the west end of the Mitchell Stadium parking lot in Bluefield on Tuesday, July 29.  The distribution will begin at 10am and conclude at 11:30am, while supply lasts.  Volunteers are asked to report at 9am.

Sponsors include Connections to the Connection, a Bluefield, WV non-profit, and the Mountaineer Food Bank, based in Gassaway and serving most of state’s southern counties.

Due to grant-award research constrictions, West Virginia residents only will be served. Sponsors of the event will ask for the recipients’ names, addresses, household sizes and phone numbers. The focus of the confidential information will reveal to program administrators the particular necessities of various communities, including southern Mercer County.
