LOUISIANA, Mo. — Cub Scout Pack 156 and BSA Troop 156 of Louisiana is sponsoring a “Scouting for Food” food drive in early November.
On Sunday, Nov. 8, Scouts will place door hangers and bags on the doors of homes in Louisiana. Community members are encouraged to place nonperishable goods in the provided bag or a box, attach the door hanger to the bag/box, and place it outside in view of the street by 9 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 14. All food items are appreciated.
Given the time of year, stuffing mix, instant potatoes, gravy mix or prepared gravy, green beans, corn and sweet potatoes would all be good choices. Any food choices that can help make a meal or supply protein are welcome. Soup and juice are also good ideas. No glass containers or perishable food please.
Anyone who doesn’t receive a door hanger or bag is welcome to participate – you can contact Cubmaster, Amanda Elliott, at 573-754-2966 or Committee Chairman, Tina Chidster, at 573-754-0535 to arrange for a pickup of donations.
