Do's
Do's
A parent should accompany the Scout during this activity.
Scouts must wear their class A uniforms.
It is suggested that Scouts ring the doorbell when leaving door hangers. If the homeowner answers, your Scout should introduce themself, let them know they’re from Cub Scout Pack 508 of Saratoga, and that they would like to leave some information about donating food.
Skip apartment buildings (our routes shouldn’t contain any).
Stick to your route for both dropping off door hangers and picking up food.
Scouts are responsible for picking up food at any house where they leave a door hanger. If something happens where a Scout can’t pick up, please message the Scouting For Food WhatsApp group.
