Two Drives to Benefit Shelton

The giving spirit in Shelton continues.

The Shelton Community Lions Club will be at the "Concerts under the Stars" on the Huntington Green this Wednesday July 10th.

"We will be giving away restaurant certificates, selling bottled water and snacks, and raffle tickets for our annual raffle. We will also be collecting school supplies for less fortunate Shelton students. Everything is needed. Free lollipops for the kids," according to a post on Shelton Patch's Facebook Page.

In a separate effort, an Shelton Eagle Scout's food drive will benefit the Spooner House Food Bank.

Chris Friend of Troop 19 in Shelton is running a food drive until July 30 for his Eagle Scout project.

There are donation bins at the following locations in Shelton:

  • Newtown Savings Bank Bridgeport Ave (5 Guys/Brugeer Bagels plaza)
  • C&C Family Auto Mechanics- 50 White Street
  • St. Margaret Mary Church -50 Donovan Lane off Long Hill Rd
Items need to be non perishable or personal hygiene items. Food gift cards are needed.

Please contact Chris Friend at cgf98@comcast.net with questions.
