Thanks so much, Debbie Hi Troop 17, Thank you for those who have collected/donated food for Scouting for Food. About 160 lbs of food has already been dropped off at Loaves and Fishes with only 5 scouts having participated. That is a lot of food from just 5 scouts !! I encourage each of you to bring a bag full of non-perishable foods for this worthy cause. Many people are going through the toughest times they have ever encountered in their lifetime. This participation is one of three activities that will earn the "service ribbon" for the BSA 2010 100th Anniversary Patch. http://scouting.org/100years/100years/ayearofcelebration.aspx Check out this site, click on Boy Scouts or Leaders to find out the activities available for achievement. Yours in Scouting !!! Debbie Schomburg
