Commack - Kings Park Rotary Club and the Kings Park community teamed up with Key Food in Kings Park on a food drive for the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry at St. Joseph’s church. The challenge was to “Stuff the Tesla” with items needed most by the food pantry. The list included tooth paste, soap, shampoo, toilet paper, paper towels, deodorant etc., as well as the food items. The response from the Kings Park community was overwhelming. Rotarians are happy to say the Tesla’s trunk, frunk and back seat were completely filled and there was an overflow.
The Tesla Model S - is an all electric car that accommodates five adults with storage capacity in both the rear and front (frunk) of the vehicle. This allowed for a lot of room to accomodate the donations which kept coming throughout the day. Many Kings Park residents took time to check out the all-electric vehicle as they helped to stuff the Tesla.
