Goose Creek District Scouting for Food Update October 5, 2007

I will be delivering Scouting for Food bags to the coordinator's homes (or other designated delivery point) beginning Wednesday, October 10.  Please take a moment to review your pack's or troop's bag count, by viewing the web page: http://home.earthlink.net/~blshiflett/s4f-unitmaps.htm and clicking on your unit number.  There are two columns: Last Year's Bag Count and This Year's Bag Count.  If there is already a number in the This Year's Bag Count column, then you are all set to receive that number of bags.  Otherwise, please send an email informing me whether you want the same number as last year or if you want to adjust that amount.  Please send me your email no later than Monday night, October 8.   If we have discussed changing your Scouting for Food territory for this year, please make an initial estimate, and I can always make an adjustment later this month. 

If you want to obtain any of the Scouting for Food yard signs that I displayed at the orientations, now is a good time to place an order.  I have a limited number on hand, and I can deliver them to your home along with the Scouting for Food bags.  The price for each sign/stand combo is $5.00. 

If you want to discuss any aspect of Scouting for Food, please give me a call on 703-405-6341, or send me e-mail at brian.shiflett@verizon.net.  Thanks again for volunteering your time to lead the Scouting for Food drive.

Yours in Scouting,
