Parents and Scouts: Tonight at the meeting we spoke about two items that I wanted to make sure made it home. 1. Scouting for Food – I have asked the scouts to take the food bags handed out tonight and go to some of your neighbor’s door with the attached note placed in each bag asking for a food donation for the Scouting for Food Program. They can then bring them back at the next scout meeting or by the 1st one in December at the latest. These food donations will go to the Mid Ohio Food Bank. 2. There is an opportunity for them to help in the Local Thanksgiving Wattle. It is a 5-K run-walk to help in the Success Beyond the Classroom project and the Grove City Food Pantry. They want us to have the scouts gather at 7:45 am at the front of the Rave movie theater and help hand out water to the runners. This will go on until 10:00 am and will be a good way to earn some service hours for those that need it. Please contact Roland Kreml if you have any questions. This is a Class B unifo...
