(Talk of the Town photo provided)
Citizens attending the recent Whitley County Patriots monthly meeting donated more than two barrels of food items for the United Way campaign to help restock
local food pantries. Above, patriots representatives Roger Metzger, far left, and Terry Smith, far right, presented the donations to Heather Juillerat, center, of Star Financial Bank. Star Financial Bank is serving as a collection point for transport to the local food pantries serving area residents. Food given at the Patriots meeting was separated by the donors' preferences for Churubusco, Columbia City or South Whitley.
