To the Editor:
Thank you for supporting Scouting for food. On behalf of Bayonne’s Boy Scout Troops I’d like to extend our warmest thanks to the Bayonne community for its support of our annual “Scouting for Food” drive. On Saturday, November 15, Scouts from Bayonne’s troops and cub packs fanned out all over town and collected more than 20,000 food items donated by Bayonne’s caring residents. All donations are being used right here in town to support Bayonne’s food pantries. Donations were also shared with the Bayonne Economic Opportunity Foundation and H.I.G.H.W.A.Y.S to assist in feeding Bayonne residents for the holidays. Scouting for Food gives the Scouts the opportunity to demonstrate Scouting in Action. For more information about joining one of Bayonne’s many Scouting rrganizations Visit BeAScout.Org. Thank you again for your generous support of Scouting for Food 2014. Look for us again in November 2015.
