This Saturday morning, November 7, 2009, my Cub Scout Pack 928 will be delivering plastic bags to the doors of many Rockville homes along with Boy Scout Troop 447 and a slew of other scouts.
These plastic grocery bags are not trash! I know there is too much writing on them but they tell you we will be back the following Saturday, November 14 to pick them up with a food donation to our local food bank. This is the 23rd year of Scouting for Food in the Washington Capital Area. With your help, local scouts collect an average of 20 tons of food each year for local food banks – enough to fill a tractor-trailer!
Please keep the bags and remember to put them outside next Saturday with a donation.
Manna Food Center suggests
- peanut butter
- tuna fish
- canned fruits and vegetables
- shelf-stable milk
- canned tomato sauce
- beans
- macaroni and cheese
- soup
- cereal
- oatmeal
- rice
- pasta

Now more than ever, local families need your help so please put out a bag wth food.

My Pack has New Mark Commons and the area around Beall Elementary. Do you never get a Scouting for Food bag? I NEVER get a bag at my house either! We only have so many scouts.
