The plaque "travels" each year to the food vendor at whose store the most units (pounds of food and dollars) was collected by the Wahpeton or Breckenridge clubs for the Richland-Wilkin Food Pantry. The drive is a combined effort of the two clubs and occurs three times each fall. This year at the Jubilee venue 375.5 pounds of food and $ 1,056.00 (or a combined total of 1431.5 units) were collected. This was 46 % of the total amount collected in the entire drive this year. During this 2015 drive the Econo Foods venue achieved 1139.1 units and Wal-Mart 785.0 units.
