Knox-Lincoln County Extension Association will hold its annual meeting from 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 12, at the 4-H Camp and Learning Center at Blueberry Cove, 22 Blueberry Cove Road, St. George. 

The Alna Food Pantry is located on the back lower level of the town office, 1574 Alna Road. It is open Wednesday afternoons from 3:30 to 5 p.m.  All area residents are welcome, no questions asked. Because its main sources are donations, the food items offered may vary. They typically include fresh fruits and vegetables, a variety of frozen items (including meat and fish), dairy products, dried goods and assorted personal hygiene items. Every Tuesday, an inventory of items available that week is distributed to all residents on the town’s email distribution list, and a printed copy is available at the town office.
