cat_notes: 1/19/10: Dayle, this entry should have been broken down and separated as the location is not the Florida Assoc. of Food Banks. People can drop stuff off at the Treasure Coast Food Bank which is partnered with them. I'm just going to leave it as is as it's too much work for me to break down at this time. - Les -> 1/19/10: Dayle, I corrected the facility name/address on this entry. Yes, the notice was announced by the FL Assoc. of Food Banks, but the collection site is at and through their partnered org "Treasure Coast Food Bank". Thanks! Les
