Scouting for Food – Bag Distribution

Scouting For Food is one of nation’s largest food drives that Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and Venture Crew members participate in to support their local Food Pantries and Hunger Relief agencies.

The Scouts of the Cradle of Liberty Council have continuously exceeded expectations and fully stocked dozens of our partner agencies with bags and bags of canned food.

We will meet at 10:00am at the gym to begin our annual Scouting for Food drive. Everyone will be divided into groups with multiple adults per group and we will go out and place bags on all doors within our given areas.   Next weekend we will go collect the bags of canned goods.  Families are encouraged to take home some extra bags to distribute on their own block.

The time accumulated this weekend and next will count as community service for the scouts and maximum participation may help us qualify for the Messengers of Peace award.

NOTE:  IT WILL BE CHILLY – PLEASE DRESS WARMLY AND IN LAYERS JUST IN CASE IT HAPPENS TO WARM UP – BE SURE TO BRING HATS & GLOVES!!!
