The third annual Plano Thanksgiving Drive collected 1,762 pounds of food in 2 1/2 hours. The drive was held at John Paul II High School, 900 Coit Road, Plano, in partnership with Food 4 Kids Plano and the North Texas Food Bank on Nov. 12.

During previous years, the drive was styled as a turkey drive, but this year NTFB collected items typically served as side dishes for the holiday, said Anna Kurian, director of communications for the NTFB.

Plano Mayor Harry LaRosiliere, Capital One and many others participated in this year’s drive.
