Community Invited to 'Fun Feeds Pasco' Saturday

It's fun, it's free and it's for a good cause.

Keystone Community Church hosts Fun Feeds Pasco from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 17, to benefit the Metropolitan Ministries.

This is the fourth year the church has hosted the only Metropolitan Ministries of Pasco tent in the Land O' Lakes/ Lutz area, co-organizer Angela Hobson.

And to get the word out to the community that the tent is there for everyone, the idea for Fun Feeds Pasco was born.

The day-long event at 21010 State Road 54 in Lutz will feature food, live music, an antique car show, bounce houses, face painting and more, co-organizer Deborah Gehlen said.

"It's a lot for the kids," she said.

The Pasco Sheriff's Office mounted posse will be there, along with a fire truck and representatives from Pasco Fire Rescue.

Free cotton candy, popcorn and hot dogs will be served up, as well.

The Metropolitan Ministries tent at Keystone Community Church is "truly meant to be a community event," Hobson said.

Everyone is invited to enjoy the free fun, not just church members, Hobson said. And of course, donations of frozen turkeys, non-perishable food items and new, unwrapped toys will be accepted throughout the day.

In addition to Saturday's event, the tent at the southwest corner of State Road 54 and U.S. 41 will be open from Nov. 12 through Nov. 21. It will open again Dec. 15 through Dec. 23.

Tent Hours:

Monday-Wednesday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Thursday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m

Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m

Sunday, 12 p.m. to 3 p.m.
