The KCII Big Red Radio will be making its first stop on the KCII Caring Christmas Food Drive this weekend. Hy-Vee is hosting the Big Red Radio from 3-5 p.m. to help collect food and household items for area food pantries. KCII General Manager Joe Nichols says the goal is to collect as many items as possible to help those in need locally. Items will be collected during the months of November and December and then the Big Red Radio will deliver everything in January. Nichols says delivering the food in January restocks the shelves after the busy holiday season and helps area pantries start the new year off on the right foot. KCII is in its 14th year of holding the Caring Christmas Food Drive.
