What do Music Festivals and Ending Hunger Have in Common?
Both ending hunger and music festivals look like this:
Live music, vendors, inflatables, and a carnival tent...bring some chairs and a picnic blanket and enjoy the show.
The Flying W Wranglers, Charlie Searle and the Ashtonz, and John Denver Tribute artist Mark Cormican and Starwood, with inflatable laser tag, mechanical bull, and bounce houses...this is going to be a really good day full of family-friendly fun. Plus, your $10 admission fee will fund the Little Chapel Food Pantry to feed two families for two weeks.

Important Notice
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
THE PANTRY WILL BE SHUT DOWN DUE TO TRAFFIC
Unless you help us.
Since our parking lot issues began, our neighbors have worked with us to make continuing distributions possible. However, the traffic backlog caused by individuals arriving before distribution and swarming the pantry at 3:30pm has created a traffic problem for our neighbors who have generously helped keep us open. We are harming their businesses and impeding their family lives with our chaotic traffic.
How can you help?
NEVER arrive before 3:30 pm
Last Name A-H, arrive between 3:30 and 4:30 pm (this time slot is the biggest problem group, and the one we are having the most issues with)
***** PLEASE STAGGER YOUR ARRIVALS! DO NOT ALL ARRIVE AT 3:30PM! *****
Last name I-Q, arrive between 4:30 pm through 5:30 pm
Last Name R-Z, arrive between 5:00 and 6:30pm
If you are early, park by the park/playground across Highway 24
Unless you have prior permission to arrive outside of your time slot, you
will be asked to leave until your designated time slot.
Help us get our traffic situation under control.
Or else, the food pantry will be shut down completely, as in, no distribution, no emergency food, and no food deliveries.
The Actions of 50 individuals will cause almost 500 to go hungry.
PLEASE HELP US SERVE YOU.
We have never run out of food on a distribution day.
Boxes are pre-packed so boxes distributed at 3:30 pm are nearly
identical to boxes distributed at 6pm.

Through consistent effort and sheer determination, the Alpine Music Festival Committee is keeping Festival planing and progress right on track.
