National Public Works Week is May 20 - 26, 2018. This year's theme is "The Power of Public Works". The New England Chapter of American Public Works Association is promoting "Fill a Truck" this year. The Town of Williston Public Works will be participating.

What/When: Annual Food Drive Event taking place during National Public Works Week.

Purpose:
To collect food and household provisions for local community food banks and raise awareness of Public Work Department's Operations. This is an opportunity to unite all Public Works Departments during a positive annual event.

Food and goods donations are especially critical during the early summer months as schools get out; many children and families may get some assistance during the school year. Many other groups and people already have food drives around the traditional holidays. National Public Works Week occurs near the end of most school years and is a time when many Public Works Departments already have public outreach events planned, making the implementation of this event a little easier.

We have contacted local and state food shelves and they are very excited for this event. The Williston Public Works Department will have drop off locations available at the following locations:
Town Clerks Office, Library, the Public Works Department, The Allen Brook School and The Williston Central School(still awaiting confirmation).

There are several other municipalities and Public Works Department throughout Vermont participating, including Champlain Water District & Vermont Agency of Transportation.

We encourage everyone in the community to participate and show your support for you Public Works Department! If you have any questions, I am the State Event Coordinator, please feel free to reach out to me. We are hoping that this event continues to grow each and every year and our families in need receive items they need.

We are looking for the following NOT EXPIRED items:
Healthy Snacks for kids, 100% juice for kids including juice boxes, Cereal & Oatmeal, Rice, Canned or dry beans, Jar/canned Spaghetti sauce, Canned fruit and vegetables, canned Fish & Meat, Jelly, Hearty soups and stews/chili, Condiments, Canned pastas such as raviolis/spaghettio's, boxed meals: macaroni & Cheese, hamburger helper, etc.
