The ConAgra Implosion VIP party raised $5,513 for two local charities --  the Huron Food Pantry and the Huron Parks and Recreation Foundation.

The Huron Chamber of Commerce and the FishHuronOhio group partnered to provide a front-row seat for the Jan. 8 event on the front lawn of Great Lakes Diesel at the corner of Cleveland and River roads. Guests were shuttled there from Huron High School on city school buses, were served refreshments by volunteers from Lighthouse Church, and received a commemorative T-shirt.

The Food Pantry assists on average 400 individuals per month. The organization provided 51,000 pounds of food to needy people last year. Funds from the P&R Foundation are used to support and improve existing programs and facilities within Huron, basically adding quality of life to the community.
