The Bath Area Food Bank continues to grow.

Unfortunately, the cupboard is almost bare, and the following items are needed desperately: canned tomato soup, canned chicken noodle soup, canned peas, canned pork and beans and Jell-O and instant pudding. Monetary donations are greatly needed and also greatly appreciated.

The food bank is located at St. John's Lutheran Church and will be open on Tuesday, Feb. 12, from 10 to 11 a.m.
