Admission to Carnival: Canned Food

May 4, 2010 -- An event called Carnival for Cans on May 9 is designed as an educational canned-food drive extravaganza on Tappan Square. It is open to all members of the Oberlin community, with the hope that many students from the elementary, middle, and high school will attend, according to organizer Laura Weiss.

Admission to the carnival is at least one can of non-perishable food. All food will be donated to Oberlin Community Services (OCS). The event is being held in conjunction with the Post Office’s annual canned food drive, Weiss said, so postal workers can pick up the food donated at the carnival and deliver it to OCS.
