Now, about that peanut-butter! Peggy Kennedy, Edmonds Food Bank Director, explains that crop failures in the South have resulted in peanut-butter shortages and the prices have gone up. She is requesting that everyone include some peanut butter when they bring food to the tournament. Hungry kids need their summer sandwiches! Kennedy adds that the food bank welcomes any type of non-perishable food.
Medals will be awarded to first, second, and third place winners. To find additional details about the tournament, please go to our web site at www.edmondspetanqueclub.org
