I've forwarded this message to everyone that I have addresses for to expedite distribution.

The food drive is happening this Saturday 5/14 in cooperation with the US Postal Service and the Guilford Food Bank.  I've been in contact with postal supervisors who tell me that food collections will be conducted by the letter carriers who will be covering most of the town.  Whether or not flyers announcing the drive are distributed in a given area is up to the individual carrier.  So, you may or may not see them in your neighborhood.

Where Scouts and Scouters are needed
Huge amounts of food are generated by this drive.  Our help is most needed at the Food Bank, breaking down and sorting the donations.  Food begins to arrive at the Food Bank at about 1:30PM and peaks out at about 3-4PM.  They can really us our help anytime from 1:30 through the time all the food is sorted.  Come anytime and stay as long as you are able.  If you have donations, you can bring them then or give them to someone who is going to attend.

Directions
The new Food Bank is located on Stone House Lane which is just past the fair grounds.  There will be tents set up in front of the building so I'm told you can't miss it.

Questions?  Call me at 458-1474 or by return email.
