For the second straight year, the Hoisington Chamber of Commerce hosted their three-minute Grocery Grab. The promotion raised funds for the Chamber while giving one winner a chance to grab as many groceries as possible at Town & Country Supermarket in Hoisington in three minutes.

Hoisington Chamber Executive Vice President Karen Baldyga says there were a few rules to the Grocery Grab.
