Marysville Fire District holiday food drive at Safeway Dec. 5-7


November 27, 2012 · 1:43 AM

MARYSVILLE — Marysville firefighters and Santa plan to gather food again this year for the Marysville Community Food Bank.

They will be at the Marysville Safeway store, located at 1258 State Ave., from 3-7 p.m on December 5-7, and they invite members of the community to stop by and say, "Hi."

During this time of year, the Marysville Community Food Bank relies even more than usual on the community's spirit of giving, to ensure that families can celebrate the holiday season. Without the community's generous support, families in need will have a hard time celebrating the holiday season.

Santa will be at the Safeway with candy canes for kids and adults alike, while he and the firefighters gladly accept donations of food, unwrapped toys or cash.
