Food Drive Scavenger Hunt


THANK YOU FOR DONATING!

What an amazing night...so many generous friends! We started around 4:20 east of the church and 80+ miles later we finished in Huron around 6:30. We received donations from over 30 families and everyone was so generous! The food pantry was very excited to receive all of our donations. After we unloaded all the food the Captain showed us where all the food is stored and what goes into each basket that is given to the families. Each basket is supposed to last them two months. He also told us all of the different programs that the Salvation Army offers such as the Christmas basket & Angel Tree!
                                           
They were as follows: 22 soups, 16 cans of fruit, 27 vegetables, 6 canned meat, 3 tuna/sardines, 20 bottles of honey, 6 peanut butters, 2 jelly, 2 pancake mixes, 1 syrup, 3 oatmeals, 13 cereals, 24 rice & pastas, 2 dried soup mixes, 2 instant potatoes, 4 rice-a-roni, 11 macaroni & cheese, 8 hamburger helper, 10 stuffing mixes, 2 apples, 14 juices, 8 cake mixes, 1 can of frosting, 1 brown sugar, 1 flour, 1 dressing, 1 baking soda, 1 mustard, 2 puddings and monetary donations. They collected 219 items to earn a total of 11,225 scavenger hunt points (625 more than last year) and are challenging themselves to beat it again next year!

Thank you,
Keistan, Lauren, Kyle, Tessah, Katie, Jodi & Stephanie
