BROOKINGS – Pack 24 Cub Scouts of Brookings in partnership with Hy-Vee donated meal packs to the Brookings County Food Pantry. The meal packs offer a quick and easy meal for Brookings area families.
Cub Scouts in kindergarten through third grade collected monetary donations from generous Hy-Vee customers during one weekend in February.
All monetary donations were used toward the purchase of food at a discounted rate from Hy-Vee. Fifty Scouts and parent-volunteers assembled three meal pack recipes including Taco Macaroni, Tuna Casserole and Chicken Alfredo.
In all, the Cub Scouts and volunteers assembled 600 meal packs totaling over 1,600 pounds of food. Meal packs were delivered to the Brookings County Food Pantry on March 18.
