Scouting for Food - Scouts will pick up your donations on Saturday AM

Bluffton Boy Scouts will collect non-perishable, non-glass food items in Bluffton on Saturday morning.

Last Saturday, Bluffton residents receive a yellow plastic bag, to be used for this week's collection.

The yellow bags should be placed on front porches (easily seen from the street) by 9 a.m. on Saturday.

The Scouts continue to perform this much-needed community service annually.
