Genius Kits and Food Drive Pack Meeting - November 18

Don't forget that our November pack meeting is coming up Thursday, November 18, 7:00 PM at the Copper Canyon Multipurpose room. If you haven't already started on your Genius Kits, time is ticking away...

Also, for this meeting, we'd like to revive a tradition of collecting non-perishable food items at our November pack meeting to help the hungry. Please bring non-perishable donations to the November pack meeting, and we'll see that they are transported to the Paradise Valley Emergency Food Bank. From their website:

In addition to canned goods of all kinds, there is a need for hot and cold cereals, juices, dry milk, spaghetti, macaroni and cheese, peanut butter, jelly, baby food, detergent, soap, toilet paper and diapers.

Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you all next week.
