We Heard You!
Our community was just as sad as we were when the Food for Thought Food Truck Festival was rained out. But the good news?
We’ve rescheduled for September 24 from 5–8 PM and it’s coming back bigger, better, and with even more food trucks! 🚚🍔🍕🍩
💙 Free Entry with a Donation
Bring fresh produce or a monetary gift to help support families right here in Clinton County.
🌟 This Year’s Cause: Student Lunch Debt
Even though free and reduced lunch exists, some families don’t qualify but still struggle to pay. When those lunch fees build up, schools are told not to feed children until payments are made. Our schools would never let that happen, but it means they have to dip into other essential funding. That’s where we can step in.
✨ Money raised at this event will go toward:
• Paying off student lunch debt so every child has access to a hot meal at school.
• Giving you the chance to purchase a meal for a family in need in Clinton County.
• Supporting the United Way of Clinton County’s 2025–2026 campaign, driving impact-based funding to food security and other community initiatives.
📍 Location: Parking lot near Marshalls, Big River Packaging, and Planet Fitness in Clinton, IA
🍴 Food Trucks Include:
• Kelley Girls Pizza
• Creative Catering Caravan, LLC
• Glazey Days Donuts
• North End Dairy Treat
• Holly’s Dogs
• Delectable Delights
• Mike’s Fun Foods
• The Line
• TJ’s on the Boulevard
• Deanna’s Java
• Boars Nest
• … and more to come!
🙏 Thank You to Our Sponsors:
Marshalls | Big River Packaging | Planet Fitness | 1st Gateway Credit Union | Republic Services
➡️ Mark your calendars, bring your appetite, and join us September 24 to help feed our kids, support local families, and strengthen our community.
