The Johnstown-Northridge Community Food Pantry's shelves are full for the time being, thanks to the Northridge and Johnstown-Monroe school districts' holiday food drive Oct. 1-5.

Annually, Johnstown-Monroe and Northridge challenge each other to a competition to determine which district could collect the most food units for the pantry.
This year, the winning school was Northridge, with 12,338 points for the entire school district and 8,146 points for the high school.

Johnstown-Monroe had 6,218 total points and 1,094 points from the high school.

The total count from both districts was 18,556 units, with more than $3,500 in cash contributions.

The food drive donations should last the pantry well-into December.
