POCATELLO - Two holiday turkey drives in Pocatello are collecting donations for The Idaho Foodbank through noon on Friday, Nov. 20, according to the food bank's event listings.
The Pocatello Police Department is holding its eighth annual "Give the Cops a Bird" drive. Frozen turkeys and money are accepted at the department, 911 N. 7th Ave., and all proceeds go to The Idaho Foodbank, the listing says. Checks dropped off there should be made out to the "Pocatello FOP Union," according to the listing.
Barrie's Ski & Sports, 624 Yellowstone Ave., is holding its annual Cranksgiving. Turkeys and money can be dropped off at the store or at The Idaho Foodbank, and the turkeys go to the Bannock County Thanksgiving food distribution, the listing says. On Saturday, Nov. 21, riders meet at the store at 10 a.m. to bike the remaining donations to the food bank's warehouse. The food bank's Pocatello branch can be reached at 208-233-8811.
