Since 1988, the Scouts of the Narragansett Council have helped feed families in need by collecting nearly 10 million pounds of food. The yearly Good Turn is the area’s most impactful food drive and the largest annual Scout service project. Marion Cub Scout Pack 32 and Troop 32 have been participating in this project since its inception. This year donations will help to supply food to the Marion Food Pantry. There are 2 ways to donate. 1) Drop off items to the Marion Police Department or at Hiller Dodge showroom or 2) come to the annual Soap Box Derby on November 18, Rain Date November 19, from 8-2 and donate directly to the scouts as they race. Food Collection is now through November 18.
Items that are always in need of at the Pantry include; Jelly, Hearty Soups, Crackers, Cookies, Cereal, Pasta Sauce, Juice, Mayo, Toilet Paper, Soap, Toothpaste and nonperishable items. (No glass jars please) Thank you for helping to support our community.
