First Church, located at the corner of Dole and West Crystal Lake Avenues, is holding an event for kids Sunday afternoon.

It’s a Trunk or Treat event at which candidate and other goodies will be available.

There will even be a fire engine to climb on.

First Church also sponsors a free food distribution at the Nunda Township Hall each Friday.

Volunteers unload the Northern Illinois Food Bank truck and sort it. There are tables for canned and dry goods, chips and crackers, meat, deli, daily, yogurt and cheese, salads, vegetables, fruit, deserts and bread.

Those interested are invited to come about 12:30.

Distribution is dependent on when a truck from the Northern Illinois Food Bank arrives, which is quite unpredictable.

First Church also sponsors Buddy Break, a three-hour break for parents of special needs kids.

One adult is paired with each child, who is offered many, many activities, as can be seen in this article.

This wheelchair bound boy got to touch a little horse at Buddy Break. He just beamed.

There is always a waiting list, so volunteers are sought.
