Scouting for Food - Food Collection!

Please remember Scouting for Food Saturday am (Nov 10). We need a big turnout since we'll be collecting the food!

1. It's predicted to be cold with potential showers this Saturday. All scouts should have a rain jacket and dress appropriately. Gloves are probably a good idea.

2. Please bring your maps from last week.

3. Make sure someone in your group knows the houses you visited last week. We don't want to leave food behind.

4. We'll have a few bags to bring for folks who may have lost theirs.

5. We need more folks this week, so please come out and help us serve our community!

6. Did I mention there will be doughnuts and baked goods donated by Heidelberg Bakery? And coffee and juice? And doughnuts?
