VFW Post 2166 Auxiliary is doing a food distribution with Second Harvest Food Bank for veterans and their families that need assistance on Friday, June 9 at 2:00 PM at the VFW Post at 2001 West Elk Ave, Elizabethton. Those coming to the food distribution are asked to have room in their trunk for the food box and to pop their trunk once they arrive in the line at the post. Participants are asked to remain in their car and the food box will be loaded for them. The food distribution will be done with no person-to-person contact to protect each person’s health.

Second Harvest has requested we provide them with an approximate number of food boxes needed so please call David Batchelder at the Carter County Veterans Service Office at 542-1824 to sign up if you plan to come for the food distribution. This will help us ensure there is adequate food available.
