An Opportunity to Help Others Through the ACT Food Drive

Dear Pack 811 Families:

Our Pack’s most important service project is coming up in the next few weeks. Our Cub Scouts will be assisting the ACT Office with their annual food drive. This is a great event to show our scouts that their service can make a big impact to those who are less fortunate. We heard from the ACT office that they have had a difficult time this year securing enough donations to meet the needs of the community they serve, so they are really depending on our Scouts!

Sunday, October 19, while the scouts are having fun during the pack meeting, we will ask parents to help staple fliers to grocery bags. Please bring a stapler with you. The more parents stapling, the faster we will get the job done.

Saturday, October 25, and Sunday, October 26, our scouts will distribute grocery bags after all the masses. We need a minimum of 5 scouts for each Mass to cover all the Church exits. You do not have to attend the particular Mass you signed up for. All you need to do is show up before the Mass ends and spend 15 minutes or so distributing grocery bags. Scouts must wear their class A uniform.

Saturday, November 1, and Sunday, November 2, our scouts will assist with the collection of filled bags from the parishioners before each Mass. We will have tables at the plaza where parishioners can drop off their food donations. The scouts will bring the food they have collected to the ACT office. We need the help of at least 5 scouts and their families for each shift.  Scouts may bring their wagons if they have them to help them transport the bags. Class A uniforms are to be worn again.

Please click on the link below to sign up for your shifts. If you can spare the time, please sign up for as many shifts as you can make.

Let us show our parish and our community what Pack 811 is all about!  You are also encouraged to distribute the flyers in your neighborhood, and offer to collect food from your neighbors!

Saturday, October 19, and Sunday, October 20:

Our Scouts will distribute grocery bags after all the Eucharists. We need a minimum of 6 scouts for each Eucharist to cover all the Church exits. All you need to do is show up before the Eucharist ends and spend 15 minutes or so distributing grocery bags. Scouts must wear their class A uniform.  Note that this Sunday our pack meeting will be held at the Scout Center from 11:00-12:30.  We are asking for adults or Girl Scouts to help us out after the 11:15 mass.

Saturday, October 26, and Sunday, October 27:

Our Scouts will assist with the collection of grocery-filled bags from parishioners before each Eucharist. We will have tables at the plaza where parishioners can drop off their food donations.
