Local Boy Scouts 
plan food drive

The Boy Scouts’ Kishwaukee District of the Three Fires Council is hosting a food drive Saturday.

Residents who received a door hanger and flier this weekend can place nonperishable food, soap, baby food, diapers and paper products in a bag marked “Scouts” on their front step by 9 a.m. Saturday, and the scouts will pick it up, according to a news release. The scouts cannot accept home-canned goods, glass containers or open containers.

Those who live in rural areas or did not receive a flier are encouraged to drop donations off themselves at local pantries. The scouts will be taking donations to The Salvation Army in DeKalb, the Sycamore Methodist Church and other pantries.
