CANtastic event seeking teams
The Rhinelander Area Food Pantry and the Rouman Cinema are once again sponsoring the CANtastic event. This year’s theme is “Toon” in to Hunger.

Team design and build a sculpture based on the theme with donated or purchased food which will then be donated to the Rhinelander Area Food Pantry. There are several judging criteria and prizes. The build day is March 3 at Rouman Cinema. For more information, call Guy, 715-282-5810 or Bill, 715-360-0400, or visit www.rhinelanderareafoodpantry.org.
