<b>Food Drive Underway through Oct. 24</b><br>
In conjunction with the Oktoberfest, the JAG is sponsoring a food
drive to support the Peninsula Food Bank. Please bring new, canned
or boxed, nonperishable food items to the food drive drop boxes
located in the ARC, SSC, CEBAF Center, Building 89 and TED lobbies.
Food donation drop barrels also will be placed near the entry points
to the Res. Facility field the day of the Oktoberfest. All donations
will go to the Foodbank of the Virginia Peninsula.<br>
<br>
<b>United Way Raffle Ends at Oktoberfest</b><br>
Also during the Oktoberfest, the winning raffle tickets will be
drawn for the two iPads that are part of the lab's United Way
fund-raising campaign. Tickets are $1 each and are available for
purchase from 12-1 p.m. through Wednesday, Oct. 24 in the CEBAF
Center lobby. All raffle ticket proceeds go to the United Way.
Tickets may be purchased during lunch times<br>
<br>
We hope you will join us at the Oktoberfest and that you will
support the food drive and the United Way appeal.<br>
