Scouting for Food Service Projects
Service Project coming up this month:
Scouting for Food is the Boy Scouts of America’s nationwide service project to help stop hunger in our communities. It began as a Scout’s service project in St. Louis, MO in 1985 and was adopted by the Boy Scout National Organization in 1988.
Pathway to Adventure Council will hold a council-wide Scouting for Food program that takes place on two consecutive weekends.
- On the first weekend, Scouts distribute bags or door hangers within their assigned area to let their neighbors know about the drive.
- On the second weekend, Scouts revisit those houses to pick up nonperishable items.
Our Troop will then drop off collected food items at the Riverside Presbyterian Church Little Free Food Pantry. Scouts will receive service hour credit.
Noting that several of you are camping this weekend, if you can assist, please reply to ASM Lauger tlauger@gmail.com for the records. Another email will be sent to all volunteers.
Thanks!
YIS, ASM Lauger
