Brockbank Holds Annual Food Drive
Brockbank Elementary recently completed their annual food drive. Usually the food drive is held before the holidays but this year Brockbank decided to have it in January. After talking to local food banks, they say this time of year food is especially in need because after Christmas they have a hard time building back up their supplies and there is significant need with all the cold, winter weather we have been having. The student council sponsored the drive and worked hard to get all the students excited about it.
