Scouts turn out for food drive

On March 20 and 26, twenty two scouts and 10 adults turned out for the Scouting for Food event to collect food and other goods for Hopelink. The first date we distributed fliers in our designated neighborhoods and returned on March 26 to pick up the donations.

Overall we collected 336 lbs for the food bank. A big thanks to all our volunteers and the community for your donations!
