MISSOULA — The Can the Cats Food Drive -- which is entering its 20th year -- kicks off Saturday.
The universities and communities in Missoula and Bozeman will compete who can collect the most food for their local food banks.
The food drive will run from Saturday until the Brawl of the Wild game in Bozeman on Nov. 23.
