Organizer: Carl Hutzler (7/915-6862 cell • cdh [at] carlhutzler [dot] com)

Troop 1970 will take part in Scouting for Food the weekend of November 6th/7th/8th. We will be distributing bags to homes and Troop 1971 will be collecting the donations the following weekend.

• Bags with flyers inserted inside will be handed out to volunteer drivers (adults) on Monday November 2nd at the Troop Meeting. Everyone will get about 100 bags for their route. If you can not pick up bags on that night, you can make arrangement with Mr. Hutzler to stop by his house and pick up your supplies.
• You are free to distribute the bags on your route anytime during the weekend of the 6th-8th.
• Each route has been carefully selected to have about 100 homes in it. (thank you Google Maps satellite view!)
• If you want to trade a route, talk to the person who has the other route. The organizer (Carl Hutzler) can not help with negotiations.
• It may be possible to go green on some of these routes. With appropriate supervision and planning, you might be able to ride a bike with the bags on your handlebars or in a larger courier type bag on your shoulder. When you get to a group of houses, drop the bike and walk the bags to the doors. This is just an option and must be approved by your adult driver during your route planning discussions.
• Please make sure that bags are tied securely to to the door of each house or put inside or pinched in a storm door if one is available. DO NOT PUT BAGS INSIDE OF MAILBOXES.
• Extra bags will be available at Mr. Hutzler’s house at 2512 Freetown Drive 20191 (near Glade Dr and Reston Pkwy)
  

The overall map of our territory along with color coded routes for each volunteer team (driver + scouts) is drawn out on a Google Map. I hope everyone is able to view it and print it for their use. Let Mr. Hutzler know if you have any issues with this (I do not plan on printing color maps for everyone).
