The food was donated by Flossies Cafe in Strawn. CARE served approximately 160 baked potatoes dinners and a nice sum was raised in donations for the fire department. CARE had an information table set up with information on a low-cost spay and neutering program that CARE and the Palo Pinto Humane Society will be offering in Gordon and the surrounding area. For more information on that program or CARE call Pam at (817) 929-5355 or Terry at (254) 672-5501.
