For the past 15 years, Curves Fitness Centers have collected food to be donated to local food pantries in an effort to help people in their communities. According to Sharon Lesage, owner of the Ballston Spa Curves at 404 Rowland St., members donated 343 pounds of nonperishable food and $145 between March 11 and March 23. The donations were given to the Ballston Spa Christ Episcopal Church's Food Pantry. Anyone interested in learning more about Curves may contact Lesage at 885-1001.
