How to Join the Fight:
Competition Structure:
Food Fight! has two levels of competition:
A. Individual/Store Level, Bucket Hosts
- Each store/bucket host competes against other bucket hosts to earn points.
- Points are tracked by items collected, dollars raised, or engagement contributions.
- Managers/leaders are responsible for submitting contributions and points to FROM.
- Community Superlative awards are on the line!
B. Team North vs. Team South of M-21
- All bucket hosts are also grouped geographically: Team North or Team South of M-21.
- Points from every host in a region combine to create a regional total.
- At the end of the competition, the region with the highest total points wins the North vs. South challenge for annual bragging rights!
