Saints' Pantry board, volunteers
will honor Martineaus on Monday
A potluck luncheon next Mon-
day will honor Saints' Pantry vol-
unteers and, in particular, Nap
and Marion Martineau for their
years of dedication to the commu-
nity and the food bank.
The event will start at noon
February 1 at Saint David's Hall
at 218 North Third Street down-
town. The public is invited to join
in at the lunch, which will run
until 1 p.m.
The Martineaus moved to Ma-
son County from Kirkland in the
early 1980s, said Billie Howard,
spokesperson for the food bank.
"Not content to sit around and en-
joy life," Howard said, "they be-
came active through Saint Ed-
ward's Catholic Church in help-
ing the newly formed food bank.
"They have been involved ever
since."
NAP MARTINEAU, in fact,
has served as director of the orga-
nization since 1990. He remained
in that leadership role until early
this year, when health problems
forced him to resign.
"Marion," Howard added, "still
works on Tuesday mornings,
packaging foods and stocking
shelves."
The Martineaus, along with
other volunteers, have worked
three days a week to serve the
community's needy families and
individuals, and have been "on
call" for emergency situations.
"The Saints' Pantry Board of
Directors, the supporting church-
es and the many community clubs
and organizations that support
the food bank appreciate the dedi-
cation of all the volunteers who
help to make it work," Howard
said.
The potluck will offer interest-
ed community members an oppor-
tunity to express their apprecia-
tion to the Martineaus and other
volunteers and also the chance to
meet the new director, Steve
Helt, food bank secretary Bobble
Welch and treasurer Barbara
Hinck.
"TO LEARN more about the
Saints' Pantry and how you can
help," Howard added, "call 427-
8847, leave your name and phone
number, and someone will get
back to you.
"Volunteers," she said, "are
needed to help unload trucks, sort
donated items and clean the facil
ity. The food bank is located at
214 South Second Street in
Shelton."

luncheon is available from How
