Before we all chow down on Sat., Mar. 17, in our Blue & Gold (and Green) Banquet, Cub Scouts are gonna help the hungry in Licking County. In co-operation with the Licking County Food Pantry Network ( http://www.foodpantrynetwork.net ), each den has a set of bags and a map of the Granville area. Most groups will distribute their bags to homes on Sat., Mar. 3, and pick up on Sat., Mar. 10, for those who wish to participate by setting out a bag on their porch.All the food will come back to the truck at Opera House Park on the Four Corners in downtown Granville, & end up at the FPN building on Steel Ave. in Newark (between 30th and 21st Sts.). This is a great service opportunity for the boys and all the family, and we're meeting a huge need. The Christmas push from all quarters has been handed out, and many shelves are getting bare, with winter nowhere near over. Make sure to participate however you can! (And their website has a PayPal method of donating if you want to do that...)
