' (NFCC) food pantry is a little fuller today, thanks to the "Summer Jam" party held by the Thursday night, which required a food donation "cover charge" from each attendee.

The chamber offices were overflowing with the crowd, most coming straight from their own offices to the event, or perhaps with a quick stop at a local grocery store for something to donate.

This event was part of the chamber's week-long food drive for NFCC.
