Hello everyone. This year at Allstate, the athlete committee will be sponsoring a food drive. Before the banquet begins, athletes, parents, and coaches can drop off canned and other non-perishable food items. There will be a little competition to see who can bring the most canned food. The team that raises the most food will be recognized at some point during the banquet. Please spread the word to your teams and let them now about this amazing opportunity! Thanks! Ashleigh Bennett (junior athlete rep)
