Cameron County Food Pantry Distribution Notice

 For Immediate Notice

Due to the corona virus outbreak, and operating with concern for the health of our clients, the Cameron County Food Pantry will be operating on the following schedule. The food distribution scheduled for March 25, 2020 will be accomplished with the following changes.

 Clients from the Emporium Arms and Maple Street Apartments will receive food delivered Tuesday, March 24 at 10:00 am.

 On Wednesday, March 25, the regular Food Pantry distribution will be at the usual 1:00 pm time on Fourth Street in front of Northern Tier Community Action.

 South Poplar Street will be closed to Food Pantry vehicular traffic.

 Clients with cars are asked to stage on Fourth Street in the spaces provided between Vine Street and Poplar Street. You will be directed when to pull forward to the space in front of Northern Tier to receive your box. A volunteer will place your box(S) in your car (please do not get out of your car) and you can then pull out as traffic allows, allowing the next vehicle to move up. If you are not able to get in line with your car, please just drive around the block and come back. 

PLEASE DO NOT BLOCK TRAFFIC ON FOURTH STREET!

If you normally walk to the Food Pantry, you will also get your food box on Fourth Street. Please keep two arms lengths distance from others who may be in line for distribution.

If you are sick or have a health issue that prevents you from coming out, please call 814-486-1161 Ext 269 and we will arrange to get your food to you. 

Your cooperation is expected. Please be patient during this process. 

 We will get through this by working together.
