Ryan Schalles brought members of Boy Scout Troop 140 to help him work on a service project. The troop is sponsored by the Downtown Optimist Club. They helped us pack food boxes. Ryan said he has collected food for the South Plains Food Bank through the Scouting for Food Program. Debbie, his mom and driver said Ryan wanted to come to see what happens to the food after it is collected. They were great.
Around the corner were volunteers from Sunset Church of Christ's Adventures in Mission (AIM). Young people from around the country make an eight month commitment to AIM in preparation for missions work in other countries. Some of the volunteers this afternoon are finishing up while others are here as part of a two week camp to learn more about the program.
This afternoon, they were making freezer boxes (to go with Ryan's food boxes) and repackaging frozen bagels. They really loved our hair nets!
