Food pantry next Tuesday, April 16

by Geoff Fox

Hancock Middle-Senior High School will be holding their monthly food pantry on Tuesday, April 16, beginning at 4 p.m. and running until 4:45 p.m.

The food pantry is held on the third Tuesday of each month during the school year through May in the school’s cafeteria.

Those who have been attending the food pantry have been lining up before students have left the building. School officials want to remind people and emphasize they are to wait in their vehicles until students and buses have left the school and parking lot.

Once the students and buses leave, people can begin lining up at the cafeteria doors.

The food pantry at Hancock Middle-Senior High School comes from a monthly donation from the Maryland Food Bank, which makes the food pantry possible.

The food available varies from month to month and while people are “shopping” for items they need, the school does ask people to be mindful of others while at the food pantry.
