Recently, Cub Scout and Boy Scout Troop 32, along with their leaders, conducted a food drive in Whitehall. They collected and donated more than 200 pounds of food to Faith Evangelical Lutheran Church for its Thanksgiving baskets, along with 1,105 pounds of food for Whitehall Food Pantry. The Scouts, leaders and parents helped to weigh the food, checked dates for expired foods, sorted food by categories and stocked the shelves.
Thanks go out to these Scouts for making a difference for the residents of Whitehall.
