The Pope County Salvation Army distributed free “Easter Food” Boxes to 50 county residents who pre-registered for the service.  This was the first year of the Easter Food Box program and Donna Ortendahl, Central Minnesota Salvation Army field representative, said if they had the resources they could have given away 100 of the boxes.  The Easter Food Boxes contained a half ham, five-pound bag of potatoes, gravy, bread, vegetable and dessert so families had everything they needed to prepare an Easter meal.  Pictured with one of the food boxes from left are Donna Ortendahl, Shirley Zemke and Jeanie Person.
