For the 7th consecutive year, Pack 162 reserved a
windy, cold, December Saturday to hold its Holiday Season Food
Drive, with the assistance of the 49th Precinct and Big Deal
Supermarket on Morris Park Avenue. Despite the cold and relentless
wind, the Pack's
valiant effort will warm the hearts and pallets of many folks, who
find themselves down on their luck, and often in dire straights this
Holiday Season. The Pack gives sincere thanks to
49th Precinct Community Council President Joe Thompson, who
withstood the cold weather and stood shoulder to shoulder with the
young Scouts of Pack 162.
A hearty thanks goes to Pack 162 Food Drive
Organizer and Den Leader Angela Rico, along with Cub Master Sean
Cahill, and Cub Leader Joanne Manfredonia. But the most Special
Thanks goes to the Brave and Hearty Scouts and Families of Bronx Pack 162, who
conquered both frigid temperatures and difficult economic
circumstances to stage yet another extremely, successful holiday
season food drive. |
