Infineon Raceway Food Drive Nets 2,000 Pounds
Thanksgiving Food Drive Nets
Nearly 2,000 Pounds for FISH
SONOMA, Calif. (Nov. 21, 2006) - Infineon Raceway donated nearly 2,000
pounds of non-perishable food items to Friends in Sonoma Helping (FISH)
following the facility's 6th annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. The amount
marked one of the largest single donations FISH will receive this
holiday season.
The donation was raised with the help of partners Destination RKA in
Windsor, Froggy 92.9 FM (Santa Rosa) and 10 Northern California Mary's
Pizza Shack locations. Sonoma Gourmet of Cotati also made a generous
donation of one pallet of gourmet food items.
Infineon Raceway has donated more than 9,000 pounds of non-perishable
food items since 2000 to FISH, which will assist needy Sonoma Valley
residents during the holiday season with food baskets and daily meals.
For more information on FISH, which has served the Sonoma Valley since
1970, please call (707) 996-0111.
"FISH is always appreciative of those people who help with donations,
especially during the holidays," said Vicki Schnurpfeil, coordinator for
FISH. "We're just delighted with the outreach that Infineon Raceway
does because they have such a huge following and it shows that people
care all over."
Individuals who donated at least four non-perishable food items were
rewarded with a ticket voucher for admission to qualifying for the
Kawasaki AMA Superbike Showdown, presented by Supercuts, on Friday, May
18, 2006.
