Please Help at the ACT Food Drive This Weekend!

Scouting For Food

Dear Pack 811 Families:

Our Pack’s biggest service project is coming up this weekend. 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.

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. The scouts will bring the food they have collected to the Act office for immediate sorting. If you have a wagon, please bring it with you. The boys enjoy loading them to carry the food. Scouts must wear their class A uniform. Please click on the link below to sign up for your shifts. If you can spare the time, please sign up for more than one shift for each weekend. It is greatly appreciated.

Click here to sign up.

The ACT Office really counts on the help of our Cub Scouts during their Annual Food Drive. Let us show them that Pack 811 is not only about fun but also about serving the community.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at jgspielman@sbcglobal.net

The Act Food Drive is Here!

Dear Pack 811 Families:

Our Pack’s biggest 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.
Saturday, November 3, and Sunday, November 4, 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. You do not have to attend the particular Eucharist you signed up for.  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.

Saturday, November 10, and Sunday, November 11, 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.  The scouts will bring the food they have collected to the ACT office for storage.  We need the help of at least 8 scouts (6 to cover each Church entrance and 2 to cover the tables) and their families for each shift.   Collection of the food is a huge task and the more help we have, the easier the job will be.  If you have a wagon, please bring it with you. The boys enjoy loading them to carry the food.  Scouts must wear their class A uniform. Please click on the link below to sign up for your shifts.  If you can spare the time, please sign up for more than one shift for each weekend.  It is greatly appreciated.
