The Ambassador Club at Lewis and Clark Elementary School, in partnership with the Astoria/Knappa Christmas Basket
Program, recently organized a successful food drive. The group, assisted by advis er Tamee Blankenship, worked with
each classroom to collect and organize food items. They kept charts of items brought in by each class, and tracked
the number of food items collected, which will be distributed to local families in need. Next, the Ambassador Club will
assist the directors of the Food Basket Program at the Clatsop County Fairgrounds by helping organize the food into
baskets. At the end of this service project, there were 1,493 items, which weighed in at 1,114 pounds. The students are
grateful for the opportunity to give back to the community.
