The Roanoke Rapids Parks and Recreation delivered approximately 600 canned goods to the Angel’s Closet this morning, food that was collected from participants of the Roanoke Rapids Christmas Parade.

The parade was organized by the Roanoke Rapids Parks and Recreation Department and sponsored by Citizens Community Bank.

Anyone wishing to still donate can bring food by T.J. Davis Recreation Center at 400 East Sixth Street. “The Recreation Department would like to thank all participants, staff, volunteers, and spectators who made this event successful,” Parks and Recreation Director John Simeon said.
