How to resolve AdBlock issue? SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Mayor’s Office will host a drive-thru food drive at the Vanderbilt Avenue Recreation Center June 7-8, in partnership with students from the Saratoga Springs High School Saratoga Pathways Academy (SPA) program.
The food drive will benefit the Saratoga Nutrition Assistance for Children Program, more commonly known as SNACpack. Many of the children who benefit from SNACpack receive free breakfasts and lunches through their schools on weekdays, but may not have guaranteed access to food over the weekends. The program provides food items that children are able to prepare themselves, in case their parents are absent or unable to make meals for them.
The Recreation Center is located at 15 Vanderbilt Ave. Food drive hours: 3- 6:30 p.m. Monday, June 7, and 9 a.m. – noon, Tuesday, June 8.
Visitors should enter the Rec Center parking lot from Vanderbilt Ave, and stop in the traffic circle near the back entrance. They may then exit their vehicle (wearing a face mask), and place their donation in an available cart. A staff member from the Mayor’s Office will then transport the donation inside.
Needed items include: cereal, oatmeal packets, graham crackers, granola bars, mac & cheese, peanut butter & jelly, tuna, soup, juice boxes, canned veggies, popcorn, crackers.
