A food drive to support the Hanover Township Food Pantry will take center stage during the Shenanigans on the Green festival at Hoffman Estates’ Hideaway Brew Garden Saturday, Aug. 9.

While the day will be filled with lively Irish music, traditional dancing, family activities and high-energy Corgi races, organizers are calling on attendees to bring donations of nonperishable food and personal care items for local families in need.

The festival will run from 1 to 6 p.m. at 5510 Prairie Stone Parkway in Hoffman Estates, with additional bands playing into the evening.

In partnership with Compass Datacenters, the festival’s Compass Cares Tent will serve as the central drop-off location for food and hygiene product donations benefiting the food pantry.

A complete list of requested donation items and event details can be found at hoffmanshenanigans.com.
