Thanksgiving Food Drive Nets More Than 650 Pounds of Food for FISH

SONOMA, Calif. (IMMEDIATE RELEASE)- Sears Point Raceway made a donation of more than 650 pounds of non-perishable food items to Friends in Sonoma Helping (FISH) following the raceway’s first Thanksgiving Food Drive.

The food items were collected through donations of race fans and community members who were rewarded with ticket vouchers to AMA Superbike qualifying on Saturday, May 4. In addition to donations made at Sears Point Raceway, items were contributed at Destination RKA in Healdsburg and Emerald City Broadcasting in Santa Rosa, home to Froggy 92.9 FM, The Fox 101.7 FM and Magic 97.7 KMGG. RKA and Emerald Broadcasting Group were co-sponsors of the drive.

FISH will use the donated food items to provide assistance to needy Sonoma Valley residents during this holiday season. In 2000, FISH supplied 1,853 households with three days of groceries, and more than 2,500 calls for food requests continue to come in each year.
