New Kent’s Lions’ Club donated their fifth bench from their ‘Bags to Benches’ program to the food pantry on Roxbury Road in Charles City on Aug. 24. The program takes soft plastic and converts it to benches that are distributed to numerous locations in Charles City and New Kent. Pictured are (front, l to r) Patsy Benjamin, food pantry director Jackie Stewart, Keith Fuhrmeister, (back, l to r) Ginny Fuhrmeister, John Johnson, Curly Hartsell, Sharon Hudson, Karon Brickman-Hartsell, and Debbie Ivey.
