Scouting For Food – Virtual 5K Shuffle

Thank You!

61 participants braved the chilly wind and flurries on Saturday, May 9, and Sunday, May 10 in order to support two of Hawk Mountain Council’s great community partners: the Helping Harvest, Fresh Food Bank and the Olivet Boys and Girls Club. Both organizations will receive a $800.00 check to help support their ongoing efforts to feed our neighbors during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The youngest participant was eight years old and the most seasoned participant was 68!

Thank You and hats off to all participants for making this unique event a success!

Here are a few photos from our participants.
