Fill the Ranger Truck Food Drive
Lost Dutchman State Park
Saturday, November 28 - Sunday, November 29, 2026 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Help us fill our Ranger Truck with kindness this holiday season!
Join Lost Dutchman State Park on November 28–29 by bringing canned goods and non-perishable food items to help support those in need in our community.
Last year, we collected an incredible 621 pounds of food! This year, we're setting our sights even higher and hoping to surpass that goal. Can we do it? With your help, absolutely!
Every can, box, and donation makes a difference. Let's see just how much we can pack into that Ranger Truck!
Donations will be made to https://superstitionfoodbank.org/
