Scouting for Food - All Scouts Needed!

Message:

Scouting for Food has rolled around again. This Sunday 11/12, at 3 pm we will be meeting at The Pit playground (aka Beverly Park, 620 N Overlook Dr) to start putting out flyers on doors.

If you are coming back from the Marsden Track campout, this first step usually takes longer so if you are free on Sunday afternoon, we still encourage you to show up as we need all the help we can get. Sunday will be a little cold, so dress warm.

The second part is Saturday 11/18 at 9 am at the church. We will meet there to divide into small groups and collect food. Wear your uniform but be aware of the weather as it could be raining.

If an out of town relative would like to participate, there is an online program this year to maximize donations. The flyer is linked. Be aware that the final day you can donate is December 16.

There will be donuts at both events.

In an effort to maximize participation in SFF there is a new online shop that allows supporters to purchase the most needed items. All items will be shipped directly to ALIVE! and local food pantries. This is great for family and friends who live out of town and want to help.
