Andrews council lets food pantry use building

Huntington County Tab:

The Andrews Town Council decided Monday, Oct. 8, to allow the Shepherd's Food Pantry, in Andrews, permission to use of part of the Andrews Community Building.

Shepherd's Food Pantry will use the building the third week of every month, which is when it receives food and distributes it to the community.

Pat McCloskey, secretary-treasurer of the food bank board, represented the pantry before the council. She petitioned the council for use of the community building, located at 67 North Snowden Street, because of issues that the pantry's current location, at the Methodist church in Andrews, poses on the days when the pantry receives and distributes food.
