Food4Vets pickup Saturday at BHS
Barnstable High School parking lot will serve as the new distribution site for Food4Vets family food pickup on Saturdays going forward.
Having met with Town Manager Mark Ells and BPS Supt. Meg Mayo-Brown, Rep. Kipp Diggs (D-Hyannis) made the announcement by phone Monday, saying volunteers are committed to extending availability of critical emergency food supplies.
The Massachusetts Military Support Foundation partnered with 4Cs West Barnstable campus to launch the initiative last fall. The drive-thru pickup then moved to the Hyannis Transportation Center, which is about to get really busy as the Cape Cod RTA ramps up summer service, Diggs said.
