Bruce Hedin of The CRABS (Conservative Retired Adult Bikers) unloads the last of the bags from the group's annual food drive. They completed their annual week-long food drive for the San Benito Food Pantry on Dec. 11. They collected a pickup truck full of groceries and cash and checks totaling $500, which was presented to Food Pantry director Lidia Garcia on Dec. 12. Besides direct drops of food in locations around the Fun N Sun park, residents paid to have their photos taken with Santa and, thanks to H-E-B of San Benito, attendees had a chance to win one of four H-E-B gift cards with a donation to the food pantry. The CRABS recently took eight pickup loads of donated goods to Repeat Performance in Harlingen after the park's semi-annual garage sale. This organization supports a battered women's shelter and other social service agencies. (Contributed photo)
