Boy Scouting for Food Nov. 14

The Boy Scouts of America-Minsi Trails Council and Channel 69 news promoted the annual Scouting for Food campaign Thursday at the Fritz Drive Northeast Ministries. Many local businesses are participating in this year’s campaign with the goal of collecting 200,000 pounds of food for donation to local food banks. Collection for the area’s largest one-day food drive begins 8 a.m. Saturday, with Scouts looking for bags of non-perishable goods on front doors with a Scouting for Food doorknob tag. Public donation sites include Wegmans stores, WFMZ-TV, Ray Price Car Dealerships, Lafayette Ambassador and Team Capital banks, and Minsi Trails Council. The event averages 230 tons of donated food each year.
