Scouting For Food
Scouting for Food is just around the corner! Please pick up your Scouting for Food bags at the Northern Trail Cub Scout and Boy Scout Roundtable on Thursday, January 12,2012 at 6:15 at King of Glory Lutheran Church located at 6411 Lyndon B. Johnson Freeway, Dallas. Units in all three districts are encouraged to pick up your Unit's Scouting for Food bags this Thursday. Scouting for Food bag distribution to the neighborhoods is on Saturday, February 11, 2012 and Scouting for Food bag pick-up of the canned goods is on Saturday, February 18, 2012. Some Units still have yet to sign up for a Scouting for Food geographic area. Please consider serving in this very worthwhile service project -- the Salvation Army and North Texas food banks are depending upon the Scouts to stock their pantries. Our volunteer efforts is especially critical this year in a down economy. Your scouts can directly impact the lives of others. Sign up today! Please do not hesitate to contact Nancy and Darryl Burke at 214-986-6067 or nancyhburke@sbcglobal.net should you have any questions. My Pack / Troop No. _______ will participate in the Scouting for Food Drive this year by distributing Scouting for Food bags on Saturday, February 11, 2012 and collecting the bags on Saturday, February 18, 2012.
