Food drive a success despite the weather

To The Eagle:

Did you see those Boy Scouts and Lions Club members when they came to your door to collect for the food drive for the Wahkiakum Food Bank? The boy scouts looked so handsome in their scout attire.

They collected over 3,300 lb. of food; such a great food drive. If by chance they did not find yours, please call and someone will pick it up.

We had almost 100 baskets last year; this year it was 102. I think the wind and rain kept some from coming to get their baskets. I came home three times to get a dry coat. I think they enjoyed the sandwiches that were fixed for them. Just letting you know how the food drive went.

Thanks from all that received the baskets and all that helped prepare them.
