SALISBURY, N.C., March 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) N.C. Pulled Pork Sliders crushed the field in the inaugural Food Lion Atlantic Coast Conference Recipe Tournament, which assigned classic game day dishes to each ACC school that participated in the league’s men’s and women’s basketball tournaments. Each recipe competed against each other and allowed fans to choose their favorites while helping to donate meals from Food Lion Feeds to the winning recipe’s local food bank.
Throughout the 2020 fall college football season, Food Lion Feeds partnered with eight colleges and universities to help nourish neighbors in need.
During the season, for every quarterback sack made by the participating college, Food Lion Feeds donated 1,000 meals to the schoolâs local food bank through the Sack to Give Back program.
âAt Food Lion, we care about nourishing our neighbors in need, and we were cheering on each school to rack up as many sacks as they could this football season,â said
Jennifer Blanchard, director of community relations for Food Lion. âWeâre proud of the hard work these student athletes did on the field to ensure our neighbors do not have to worry about where their next meal will come from this holiday season.â

As COVID-19 cases rise the Craig Parks and Recreation Department is working on ways to keep community members active and outside. And despite Old Man Winter’s growing presence, the Parks and Rec department is working on developing programs for all ages, including snowshoeing.
Parks and Recreation Director Ryan Dennison said the key to success is to be adaptable. When COVID-19 first hit, Dennison said they had to quickly go to a contingency plan for the swimming complex and follow state and local guidelines in all their programming.
