Carolina County Food Bank Donation

As the Boy Scouts say goodbye to Carolina County, the site of every Jamboree since 1980, we want to give one more thank you for their hospitality with a donation to the Carolina County Food Bank. The Southern Region wants every Scout and Scouter attending to donate one canned food item to the Food Bank - this would generate thousands of cans of food! The Southern Region is Texas to the East Coast! In Circle Ten Council one of our fellow Adult Jamboree Leaders has struck a deal with a Walmart in the County to buy one can of food - one of the more popular vegtables - per Scout in our Council Contigent for $1.

So if a Scout wants to contribute we need $1.00. The Scout will get a can to put in the Food Bank distribution box and I hear there is a thank you item for each Scout that participates. The Scout can give us the $1 at the airport or on the tour.
