Scouts for Schools Delivers for Hackleburg

After a lot of hard work, planning and preparing, members of Troop 145 and 215 were finally able to make a delivery for Hackleburg today. They started by sorting ....


and boxing the school supplies collected earlier this month.


In all, they stuffed roughly 35 boxes and bins into three vehicles, then made the two hour drive up to the Marion County Board of Education.


Those making the drop today included Olivia Fulmore (Troop 145), Bane McHale, Lyndsey Shelton (Troop 145), Dawn Van Camp (Troop 145), Bailey McHale (Troop 145), Debbie Van Camp (Troop 215), and their parents Julia and Steve Van Camp, Danny McHale, and Shawn Shelton. (Have I left anyone out?!?)


The school representatives were so thankful for the kids supplies, but also very excited about the teacher supplies and (especially) the games and balls were able to bring.

Thanks to everyone for your generosity in money, supplies and time. This was just the first trip for Hackleburg. They will need more as they prepare for the start of next school year, but today was an excellent start!!
