The invitation-only event will bring attention to food insecurity within the region.
Upon arrival, attendees will receive a ticket that will determine if they are in the high class, middle class, low class or a disaster area. Each class will be given different meals ranging from a three-course meal to nothing.
Libby Uhing, Chadron Primary School Principal, will be attending the Oxfam Hunger Banquet to help shed light on poverty levels within the region and school district.
