Moving On Up!

Emmitsburg Food Bank/Catoctin Pregnancy Center Relocate

This month, the Emmitsburg Food Bank and the Catoctin Pregnancy Center move from the old mill location on the east side of Emmitsburg to a new location up-town (meaning “up hill” into town), near the Emmitsburg Elementary School playground in the former W.S. Drywall offices at 130 South Seton Avenue (in the rear of the building) as of September 1. The food bank and pregnancy center will be closed the last week of August for the move.

At the new facility, Catoctin Pregnancy Center hours will remain the same: Monday and Friday, 1:00-3:00 p.m.; Tuesday and Thursday, 7:00-8:00 p.m. Whereas, the Emmitsburg Food Bank hours will change to Tuesday, 6:00-7:00 p.m.; Wednesday, 7:00-8:00 p.m.; Friday, 3:30-4:30 p.m.; and Saturday, 10:00-11:00 a.m.

Everyone is excited about the new location, which features more space and easier access. Please be patient while volunteers settle in. Director Phyllis Kelly said, “We invite anyone that needs help with food or during pregnancy to check us out.”

The former location of the Catoctin Pregnancy Center/Emmitsburg Food Bank was on East Main Street.

The new location is the rear entrance of the property at 130 South Seton Avenue in Emmitsburg.
