Area Boy Scouts held their annual Food Drive on Saturday, April 17, and collected more than 3200 pounds of food donations. Approximately 39 adults and 40 Scouts participated in collecting.
The annual Postal Food Drive usually held the second Saturday each May was canceled this year due to COVID-19 concerns. Instead, the U.S. Postal Service is encouraging citizens to make private monetary donations to the cause.
Merrill’s annual Fill the Gazebo Campaign is going forward and is scheduled for the morning of Saturday, August 7, 2021. More information to come.
