American Legion Post 89 in Pella is bringing back an event aimed to bolster the Pella Community Food Shelf. David Robbins with the American Legion says they are hosting a 4th of July Ruck on Saturday, July 4th from 9 to 11 a.m., starting at the Pella Memorial Building. Robbins says the community is encouraged to come with a backpack or ruck bag filled with donations for the Pella Community Food Shelf, and carry that weight along a pre planned route. Robbins says several pounds of food were collected last year for the Pella Food Shelf. No pre-registration is required, and those who do not want to participate in the ruck walk can still bring donations to the Pella Memorial Building during the event.
