There's nothing better than gathering by the fire with your loved ones, having a few drinks and partaking in entirely too much food. Sadly, not everyone gets to enjoy that luxury. There are way too many families in our community that don't get a big Christmas meal. Hopefully, with the help of Hy-Vee that number is much lower this year. Hy-Vee will be giving out several hundred hams to families in need.

It's all part of the Annual Hy-Vee Hams for the Holidays campaign. Rochester is one of 10 stops that Hy-Vee is making across eight states to deliver 5,000 hams to families. Rochester Hy-Vee employees and local first responders will be at the National Guard Armory Building on Marion Road today at 5 pm. They will be handing out 300 Hormel® Cure 81® hams for an hour or until supplies last.
