1st Annual Turkey Toss

What an overwhelming response for the 1st Annual Turkey Toss presented by Shop Rite to benefit the Montdale Food Pantry!!! We LITERALLY had people get “taken off their feet” with enthusiasm!! Please watch the video… you will not be disappointed!! We had 8 Turkey winners! Ruthanna Clark was the lucky winner of the $250 ShopRite gift card! Great vibes were present the entire event! Over 200 turkeys were tossed raising $1,100 for the Montdale Food Pantry as well as 3 carloads of food!! The generosity was simply amazing! Thank you for supporting this event and my crazy ideas!! Let’s get my thinking cap on for our next fundraising opportunity… ????
