Drive 'N' Drop Food Drive

"A Day of Giving" - Lewis County Drive 'N' Drop is a major food drive for the county. It will take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 1st.

Lewis County's NEW food drive, Drive 'N' Drop, was established to take the place of Walk 'N' Knock to further the growth of this annual event.

In the past, the annual food drive has stocked county food bank shelves for three months out of the year. The need for food donations has never been greater, although recent donations have dwindled.

There will be roughly 40 drop sites open from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm throughout Lewis County, including 19 fire stations.

Drop sites include:

All area food banks – Centralia Salvation Army, Chehalis, Winlock, Toledo, Pe Ell, Somma (Salkum), Morton, and White Pass

Fire departments – Centralia at Harrison Ave. and North Pearl; Chehalis at Park Street, Jackson Highway and Adna Grange; Napavine; Winlock; Vader; Pe Ell; Curtis; Toledo; Onalaska; Salkum; Mossyrock; Morton; Randle; Glenoma; and Packwood.
