Caffeine & Carburetors requests donations for the New Canaan Food Pantry at its Sunday, October 19 gathering at Waveny Park, 677 South Avenue (Rte. 124), New Canaan, Conn., 8-11:30am. The Food Bank currently needs canned fruits and vegetables, powdered milk, crackers, cookies, kids’ juice boxes and snacks, gift cards to grocery stores and reusable grocery bags.

“Caffeine & Carburetors is a community-based event and has long supported charitable causes,” explains co-organizer, Doug Zumbach. “The September C&C also benefited the New Canaan Food Pantry with car owners and other attendees bringing items purchased from local merchants, including Mrs. Green’s Natural Market and Walter Stewart’s Market. We welcome the involvement of Town groups and are pleased the Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts have participated with their Troop projects. At our October program at Waveny Park, the Carriage Barn Arts Center will host a children’s art workshop, featuring fun car-themed crafts and refreshments.”
