On September 12, the Warwick Valley Chamber of Commerce hosted the 29th Annual Taste of Warwick at Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery (114 Little York Road) to raise money for the “Backpack Snack Attack.” In total, the chamber donated $1,076 to Backpack Snack Attack.

“We are so grateful to the wonderful restaurant participants who served our guests delicious food and donated their time to make this event possible,” the chamber said in a statement.

Backpack Snack Attack is an outreach program created by the Warwick Reformed Church. According to the program’s website, Backpack Snack Attack helps feed more than 250 children in the city of Warwick. The church said it started the program in January 2009 “to provide food for hungry school children to eat at home on weekends during the school year, when school meals are not available.” In the fall of 2011, the church said it expanded the program to include all public schools in Florida, Greenwood Lake and Warwick.
