Den leaders --
As for the Saturday forecast, the plan B is . . . there is no plan B! If the weather is truly horrible, as in Level 2 or 3 Snow Emergency horrible for Licking County, we can try to ask for the Food Pantry Network truck to come on Mar. 15, Blue & Gold Saturday in the morning, but we have limited means to let folks know what's happened.
So just use your best judgment, do what you can, but assume that we will still have the truck at Opera House Park in downtown Granville, on Broadway next to St. Luke's Episcopal Church right in front of the big bell, from 10 am to Noon -- this Saturday, March 8.
If the county sheriff's office puts us at Snow Emergency 2 or 3, i will get the Advocate paper and website, radio and TV stations to post "Granville Food Drive postponed to next Saturday" and we'll do what we can then. But just scuzzy weather alone doesn't cancel this Saturday! It will impact our giving, but i think trying to re-set to next week would drop it even farther.
Yours in Scouting,
Jeff Gill

Also, re: the Food Drive, for den leaders -- Thursday night we distributed all the bags Ross Market had to offer at this time, and they may or may not order another batch -- apparently they don't use as many as they used to, and the cost of a print run is up. So look over your maps, and distribute the hundred you got in the most judicious manner possible! You likely won't be able to hit every house. If i get access to more bags, i'll let you know.

Scouting's Birthday
For the Boy Scouts of America, our official starting date is traditionally observed as Feb. 8, 1910, since the federal charter was issued on that day, now 98 years ago. Scout Sunday/Sabbath is marked by many churches, especially when they are the chartering organization for a Scout group, and the first or second weekend of February is when that observance falls.
We marked the 100th anniversary of the actual beginning of the Scouting program last summer, when Baden-Powell field tested the book he was about to release, "Scouting for Boys," with a camp at Brownsea Island. An enjoyable overview can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownsea_Island_Scout_camp
From these roots, the vast tree of the World Scouting Movement now covers the entire world. Happy birthday BSA, Scouting around the globe, and in your house!
