Scouting for Food Drive

Hello Pack 216!
Our Pack is conducting our annual Scouting for Food Drive in the Brookstone subdivision on July 20 and July 27. The food we collect will benefit the Western Wake Crisis Ministry (www.wwcm.org).
Please sign-up at bottom of this page for the drive so that we can get a head count of volunteers each day for planning purposes.
We will distribute bags with instructions to the residents of the Brookstone neighborhood on Saturday, July 20 at 9 am. This should be a quick morning activity. It takes about 45 minutes.
We will pick up food on Saturday, July 27 at 9am – this will be a longer activity needing more volunteers – we need to bring the food back to the staging point by car, weigh it, and load it into pickup trucks for further transfer to the donation center. This can take up to 3 hours depending on the number of volunteers.
We will meet at 9:00 am both days at the Brookstone pool. The address is 6651 Lewey Drive, Cary, NC 27519.
Scouts should wear Class B Uniform both days and bring water to drink.
Please join us for this worthy cause! All are welcome to help-scouts, siblings, parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents....BRING THEM ALL! This will also be one of our three activities to earn the summertime pack award.
We are also looking for people with pickup trucks and mini-vans to help transport the food to the donation site after collecting and weighing at the meeting site. Please email Erika or Melinda directly with questions.
Additionally, we will provide letter of volunteer service hours for those who need them.
Thank you in advance for your help! I hope you are having a great summer!
