(KFVS) - More than 30,000 Scouts are expected to participate in the 28th annual "Scouting for Food" canned goods drive on Saturday, November 17.
Last Saturday, Scouts distributed more than 1 million plastic grocery bags throughout eastern Missouri and Southern Illinois. Scouts, parents and leaders will return to those same areas to collect the bags filled with food items.
The Scouts collected more than 45 million food items during the first 27 years of the drive.
