FOOD PANTRY:  Please consider donating food items for the BRS food pantry when you drop your son off at school after the break. The pantry feeds a number of area children, and healthy snacks would be greatly appreciated - snacks that a young person may open and eat when mom or dad are not around (applesauce, cheese sticks, fruit cups, etc.). Non-perishable items such as toiletries, etc. are also appreciated. The BRS food pantry is operated in conjunction with the Buck Mountain Episcopal Church in  Earlysville.
