Thanks in part to community, food pantry flourishes
The Human Relations Award from the Village of Deerfield will be awarded to volunteers Lynda and Tuck Woodson of Deerfield later this month. Thanks to all their hard work in keeping the food pantry alive, it is no longer just the two of them keeping it going, rather it is the community as a whole. Working with Boy Scout and Cub Scout troops, students have helped the Woodson’s through community service hours needed to receive certain badges. Other community services have also helped, including the Jr. Woman’s Club of Deerfield and the Newcomers Club, as well as many others. These volunteers highly enjoy community effort, and hope to keep it that way. You can find the food pantry located in the basement of the township office at 601 Deerfield Road.
