Local Junior Leagues to Hold Annual Food Drive
February 27, 2018
BRISTOL, Va. -- The Junior Leagues of Bristol, Kingsport and Johnson City will hold their 28th annual food drive at area Food City locations on Saturday, March 3rd to collect food for Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee and Feeding America Southwest Virginia.
The need for food is high this spring and this is the first large-scale, region-wide food drive of 2018. Junior League members encourage everyone to get involved in hunger relief by making a food donation on March 3.
The Junior League of Bristol, in conjunction with the Bristol, VA Parks & Recreation Department has approved our community project for the 2018-2019 League Year - a sensory board at Sugar Hollow Park in Bristol, VA. In previous years, playground equipment has been donated by the Junior League of Bristol at Sugar Hollow Park, and the addition of a sensory board and panels not only provides safe and stimulating play for children with special needs, but appeals to children of all ages.
We are excited to begin working on construction of this project with our anticipated completion date scheduled for Spring/Summer 2019.

You can also mail donations to Junior League of Bristol TN/VA, Inc. P.O. Box 1448, Bristol, VA 24203.
The Junior League of Bristol TN/VA is excited to bring the Bargain Bonanza back to life! For one weekend day only on November 10, 2018, from 7:30am-5:30pm, a yard-sale style consignment shop is available to the public for a $3.00 admission ticket (children 12 & under are free).
Why Bargain Bonanza? The Junior League of Bristol TN/VA, in conjunction with the Bristol, Virginia Parks & Recreations Department, recently chose a signature project for the 2018-2019 league year, the purchase and installation of sensory boards for special needs children at Sugar Hollow Park. Bargain Bonanza will help raise funds necessary to complete this year's project. Please see our Project Spotlight section below for additional details.
For additional questions, or if you would like to donate items to JLB's Bargain Bonanza, please contact Beth Muncy (bethmuncy@btes.tv) or Danielle Parker (danielle@btes.tv).
