Pack the Paramount
 Together with WJJR-FM and Omya, CVPS
hosts the annual Pack the Paramount food drive each year to collect non-perishable
food for the Salvation Army, Rutland Community Cupboard and BROC of Rutland, Vt.
Over two days, thousands of food items are collected, filling all 848 seats and
the stage of the historic Paramount Theatre in downtown Rutland, Vt. The event is
culminated in a frenzied, but organized removal of food that has been amassed by
dozens of volunteers. Pack the Paramount is an energizing event, which visually
showcases how the collective efforts of thousands of people in the community can
make a tangible dent in alleviating hunger in Rutland.
