DANVILLE AREA FOOD PANTRY

Help us feed children, seniors and and others in our community with the greatest need! ALL donations go directly to the food pantry - no one makes a dime!

BIGGER! - BETTER! - MORE!

The second annual Foodstock Fall Festival is rapidly approaching. This year, we are very proud to welcome El Toro Restaurante Mexicano as our event sponsor. We very much appreciate their support, because it means that every penny and every pea we collect will go directly to the benefactor of our event - the Danville Area Food Pantry.

This time around, we hope to raise TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLARS in food and monetary donations in support of the Danville Area Food Pantry. The pantry is always stretched thin, but this year it's almost transparent! Food pantry director Chuck Brooks tells us that the economy is putting a serious strain on many more area families. That means the pantry needs to fill it's shelves more than every before. And that's why we're going to work even harder this year to help them out.


MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT

As always, the program is 100% Family-Friendly, featuring many of the area's finest musicians. This year's performers will include:

12:15 - Eva Hunter - a gifted vocalist and songwriter, Eva is one of the top Country artists in the Illiana area.

1:15 - Stone Crik Bluegrass Band - one of the area's favorite Bluegrass bands. Nuff said!

4:15 - Lane Baldwin & Deeper Blues - Foodstock founder Lane will serve as co-MC, and will bring the full band for the concert.

5:15 - Rick Plester Trio - a Very Special Guest, Rick is taking time on his way home to Los Alnegles (from Canada) to stop in Danville to present a set of Classic Rock, with Lane on Bass, and Very Special Guest Danny Berton (from Ohio) on drums. Rick has toured, recorded and produced such Rock legends as Scorpions, Michael Schenker and George Lynch.
