Volunteers unload gallons of milk and boxes of food into vehicles during a drive-up food distribution event at the Lyon County fairgrounds Tuesday afternoon. Enough food packages were on hand for 700 households, organizers said.
MARSHALL Â The cars snaked around the Lyon County fairgrounds, and down Fairgrounds Road almost all the way to Highway 19. But the line was moving steadily, as volunteers helped load vehicles with cartons of food and gallon jugs of milk.
Organizers said they started giving out food early, partly to head off potential traffic jams on the highway.
“Some people had actually been here since noon,” said Margaret Palan of United Community Action Partnership, one of the people helping to run the free drive-up food distribution event in Marshall on Tuesday. The distribution event was the third one that Second Harvest Heartland, UCAP and United Way of Southwest Minnesota have organized in Marshall.
