Crosslines Food Pantry held its annual food and toy distribution Saturday afternoon at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds.
More than 700 volunteers handed out baskets with all the trimmings for a special holiday dinner. Attendees also had the opportunity to go shopping for necessities and get toys to make Christmas just a little more special.
