The Richard M. Borchard Fairgrounds in Robstown is set to become a bustling center of holiday assistance. On Friday, the Coastal Bend Food Bank will be hosting a large food giveaway. Community members are encouraged to start lining up as early as 5 a.m. and each car will receive two boxes of food. With enough holiday food boxes for one thousand cars, it's a significant gesture to help those in need during the festive season.

Ensuring a Smooth Operation

Robstown Police Chief Mike Tamez is taking proactive measures to keep the event running smoothly. As the event starts at 7 a.m., police will be on site from 5 a.m. to provide traffic control. Their goal is to get everyone through the line in an orderly fashion and avoid any traffic congestion. Chief Tamez has also extended an invitation to volunteers who wish to help hand out the food. Just reach out to the Robstown Police Department.
