SALMON CREEK — The Salmon Creek Lions Club recently held a free paper shredding event to benefit the Clark County Food Bank. In addition to offering a shredding service to residents, the organization collected food at the same time. The three-hour event at the parking lot of Chuck’s Produce brought in 245 vehicles and “enough wastepaper to fill the shredding truck,” according to a news release.
