rainy line.JPGA recent campaign event for two Upland City Council candidates had an interesting turn out.

Mark Creighton and Gino L. Filippi hosted a meet and greet, with free In-N-Out burgers, Thursday in the 99 Cents Only store parking lot, which become more than just a political event.

Several homeless people and families showed up, in the rain, to the In-N-Out truck looking for a meal.

More than 300 individuals and families were fed 450 burgers during the cold and rainy event. 

Creighton and Filippi are running for Upland City Council against three incumbents: Brendan Brandt, Ray Musser and Tom Thomas.
