FOOD DRIVE 2007 for AVON and GRANT Townships All Girl Scout troops are encouraged to do whatever they can to help feed the hungry in their community. In an effort to do just that, we are holding a FOOD DRIVE for Avon & Grant Townships on November 10th. We have done this a few times in the past with great success by having the Troops distribute paper grocery bags (usually donated by local grocers) to their neighbors a week before the pick-up date with a note describing the Food Drive and indicating said pick-up date when the Scouts will retrieve the filled bags. (See attached sample note for neighborhood bags.) Keep in mind: when sorting through the donated items prior to dropping them off; if YOU would not serve the item(s) that you are donating to your family due to age or condition of the can then please do not bring them to the food pantry! Please note that there are two (2) drop-off locations; AVON TOWNSHIP CENTER Saturday, November 10, 2007 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon GRANT TOWNSHIP CENTER Saturday, November 10, 2007 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon Questions? Contact Patches ($1.00 each): the holiday season, patches might not be available until the January VISTA Meeting.
