Scrap Paper Drive Shows Smallest Scout Totals Yet
Roanoke Rapids troops 141 142 and 144 held a scrap paper drive with the city’s smallest total poundage ever. Weather and postponements hindered participation though Troop 141 used two trucks and covered much of the city. Plans call for continued drives with troops 145 146 and 147 in late February and for a house to house Old Clothes collection Friday at 3 30 pm weather permitting. Boy Scout Week activities include a Fathers Son Banquet and Scout Sunday February 10 at the Presbyterian Church with uniforms worn all week and a Shirts Off Our Back campaign targeting 700 items of equipment or uniforms.
