Last weekend we participated in the first half of one of scouting's largest service projects, Scouting For Food. This year there was a little mix up at the council after various food banks' availability was affected by COVID, but they scrambled and figured it out. This is a marquee project for Cub Scouts that's been around for decades. Scouts from all over the country participated, and our pack had multiple groups of scouts going out over two days in two neighborhoods. We will be collecting the donations next weekend and dropping them off at a Denver food pantry. How does Scouting For Food Work?
Scouting For Food happens over two weekends. During the first weekend (November 6th and 7th), scouts leave door hangers with information about the project on residents' doors. Residents gather nonperishable foods to donate. We will collect the donations on the second weekend (November 13th).
