Christmas Caroling for Cans



The Rainier lions Club will be “Caroling for Cans” this Friday night in Rainier collecting cans of food for the Rainier Food Bank so that we can all help feed those less fortunate than ourselves.

We will be carrying on the long standing tradition of Christmas carolers. Why do Christmas carolers travel in groups going from house to house singing and celebrating the season today?  It is believed that Christmas caroling developed in or around the 15th century with those too poor “singing for their supper,” going from door-to-door until they had enough food to sustain themselves.




  
The Rainier Lions Club will beasking for food for our area's hungry and homeless from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM. We will meet and start at the Rainier Chapel at 6 P.M. this Friday evening, December 14, 2012.  Anyone interested in  participating is welcome to join us. The more the merrier.  It was great fun last year.

Unfortunately we can’t reach every single home, but you may also drop off canned & non-perishable food at Main Street Cookie Store or Ginger Street store in Downtown Rainier.

If you have any questions, please call George at:  (360) 292-5363 or Evan at:  (360) 280-0305
