Annual “Stuff The Bus” Event Helps Stock The Food Bank For The Holidays

San Andreas, CA…Stuff the Bus events are coming soon to local grocery stores. In this holiday tradition, Calaveras Transit teams up with the Resource Connection Food Bank Santa’s Express to collect food for hungry Calaveras County families. Shoppers help stuff Calaveras Transit buses with non-perishable food items and frozen turkeys.
