Amador County Association of Realtors President Tina Starling-Dennis announced the donation Saturday, saying the donation was also matched by Raley’s grocery store’s “Food For Families” Program.

Amador Association of Realtors has been located in Jackson for more than 45 years, Starling-Dennis said, and each year ACAR “faithfully donates to the Interfaith Food Bank in addition to holding an annual Theatre Night fund raising event where 100 percent of the donations go to Amador Interfaith Food Bank.”

She said: “Even through economic hard times ACAR Realtors have volunteered their time to hold a fund raising event for the Food Bank. ACAR alternates the event venue between Kennedy Gold Mine and Volcano Amphitheatre. The Theatre and their cast are very generous by opening one night specifically for this event.”

The event consists of a great play, raffle prizes, and community friends and family supporting Amador Food Bank. She said: “If you have never attended this wonderful event, be sure to contact Amador County Association of Realtors for more information.” Call ACAR at (209) 223-3875.

Starling-Dennis said the event would benefit from recalling “a quote form a very smart and loved man,” Bob Wynne, who said: “I can imagine being lots of things but being hungry is not one of them. No one should go hungry.”
